Your DHC - staying informed ,* Planning for your long � term care MITCHELL - Long Term Care (LTC) refers to a broad range of personal care, support and health services, provided to people who have limitations that prevent them from participating in every day ac- tivities. Long term are services are provided to people who are elderly, people with physical disabilities and people of all ages, including children who require health servic- es in their homes. Long term care services include: homemaking; community support services (ie. home maintenance, adult day pro- grams); professional services (for example: nursing, physiotherapy, Placement Coordination Services); and information and referral servic- es. Nursing Homes and )homes for the Aged, known as LTC facilities, are considered part of the LTC sys- tem. The Huron Perth DHC currently has two long term care (LTC) com- mittees - one for each county. These committees develop plans to address the LTC needs of the resi- dents of Huron and Perth. During the past year, the LTC Committees have been developing annual/ multiyear plans for the counties. These plans will become a "blue- print" which will guide the im- provements and changes to LTC services. The plans will be reevaluated yearly to ensure a fit with funding . levels and county priorities. The plans were approved by the District Health Council in March 1996, and Have a news tip? Call the Times -Advocate 235-1331 have been submitted to Jim Wil- son, Minister of Health Council in March 1996, and have been sumit- ted to Jim Wilson, Minister of Health for tihal approval. Once ap- proved at the Ministry level, the plans are used to assist with the de- termination of funding for Huron and Perth LTC services. For indi- viduals who use LTC services (commonly referred to as "consu- mers"), the changes will mean a LTC system that focuses on keq>i. ing people healthy (rather than sim- ply treating people when they are ill), and promotes independence, dignity and choice, and improves access to services. The plans for the district are the result of the efforts of numerous volunteers, both on the committees and throughout the community. These volunteers were guided by the values and beliefs expressed by our local communities. The DHC is committed to ensur- ing that input from the residents of Huron and Perth is built into the LTC planning process. As a result, the DHC, in partnership with local community groups including the Perth County Seniors Planning Council, is holding a forum to look at new ways to ensure that the lo-' cal voice shapes long term care services. These new approaches of obtaining local input will be im- portant as the DHC moves toward the establishment of a single LTC planning committee for the dis- trict. The date for the forum will be decided shortly and will be well advertised. The forum is open to all individuals with an interest in LTC. Consumers are particularly encouraged to attend and help build an effective LTC planning process. Individuals interested in attending the forum can contact Shirley Jones at 348-4498. zZ—Z ZZ ZZ is=aEBCBEM ML MIK MUM ROTARY CLUB OF GRAND BEND TRIP -OF -THE -MONTH DRAW EARLY BIRD WINNERS March: Frank Moore, Zurich - $300.
