Quality Improvement Plans
In March 2011, the CVH Board of Directors approved the 2011/2012 Annual Quality Improvement Plan (QIP) and the 2011-2014 Quality & Patient Safety Plan. The QIP is a new requirement under the ‘Excellent Care for All Act’ with the purpose of helping hospitals to further improve the quality of safety for the care we deliver.
The Quality Improvement Plan is publicly available by clicking on the following link:
Quality, Performance and Risk Management worked closely with administration, physicians and other health care professionals to determine areas where we are doing well and areas where we have room for improvement. From there, targets were set for Credit Valley, which are reflected in the document below.
Performance-Based Compensation
The ‘Excellent Care for All Act’ also requires that compensation of the Senior Leadership Team be linked to achievement of some performance targets in the Quality Improvement Plan. The Board of Directors developed and approved the performance-based compensation plan that is publicly available by clicking on the link.
The salaries of each member of the Senior Leadership Team will be reduced by the percentage shown in the plan, and can then be earned back by meeting the targets listed in the compensation plan. Thresholds are in place to allow for partial pay-back of the compensation, but salaries cannot go above their current level by exceeding the target.
