Quality and performance evaluation, a guarantee of success
MONTREAL, 2 sept. 2021 / CNW Telbec / – The members of the Council of Private Enterprises in Health and Well-Being (CEPSEM) reacted positively to the initial findings of the Commissioner for Health and Well-being contained in her preliminary report. As part of its representations to the Commissioner and the Québec Ombudsman, CEPSEM insisted on the importance of valuing and evaluating quality by acquiring common indicators, regardless of whether the establishment is managed by a community organization, a private company or the public network.
Restore the power of choice to accommodated adults
“In our opinion, certain changes would resolve many difficulties. Just think of the benefits of giving beneficiaries the freedom to choose. This freedom would be easier if the funding were offered to people with loss of autonomy rather than directly to institutions. Thus, the quality of care and services offered would be at the heart of decisions and, by the same token, strongly encouraged. », Exposes Luc Lepage, president of CEPSEM.
In addition, funding to the individual rather than to the institution would also offer everyone the free choice of the type of resource that suits them best, according to their needs. Thus, he would be free to choose whether he wanted to go to an establishment with private, community or public management. He could also decide to receive home care offered by organizations, the public sector or private companies. In this regard, the needs would be assessed beforehand according to a standardized evaluation grid and the funding would then be granted according to the financial capacity of the individual and his condition. This would ensure parity in the treatments received, regardless of who provides the service.
