PLANNING AND COLLABORATING ON SYSTEM LEVEL ISSUES

While regional differences and unique challenges addressed by Schedule I leaders will always provide insight and innovation at a local level, the shift to provincial system level planning and policy development provides an opportunity that was not feasible even a few years ago.

Last year our Summit focused on bridges that would take us from post pandemic crisis management to permanent change. A year later, the path to a mental health system in Ontario is becoming more evident.

The AGHPS is pleased to support and participate as The Mental Health Centre of Excellence determines priorities, data requirements and a mechanism for greater provincial system planning. In addition, we know that the leadership in Schedule I hospitals will be pivotal to the success of a mental healthcare system in Ontario. The AGHPS Leadership Summit is a forum for leaders to collaborate on the complex practices and processes involved in that planning.

Centralized planning through the MH COE can provide direction, data and oversight, while the innovative projects of individual hospitals and regional collaborations can increase the scope and speed of change, providing context and details for potential solutions to complex challenges. We believe the combined knowledge and experience among a community of leaders from all levels of planning is a valuable resource.

The AGHPS 13th Leadership Summit is a platform to incorporate the efforts, achievements and goals of all Schedule I leaders into the broader landscape of a system for mental healthcare in Ontario.

INCREASING CAPACITY THROUGH INNOVATION

One of the greatest challenges we face as leaders is that of access and wait times. The Summit will take advantage of an extraordinary clustering of leaders to address the potential to move from our current state to improving access to quality care through system planning, collaboration and innovation. Through posters, presentations and interactive discussions, we are confident that as a community of hospitals we will take home a new idea, a new plan and a new perspective in system level planning demonstrating that "the whole is greater than the sum of its parts".
