Health Care Facility Climate Change Resiliency Mentoring in Canada Pacific Northwest Resilience Summit Seattle Washington December 7, 2016 Good morning. It is a pleasure to be here today to talk about climate change resilience for health care. In British Columbia health care is working to reduce greenhouse gases and to is carbon neutral through the purchase of offsets. Thanks to the work of Health Canada, the Canadian Coalition for Green Health Care and the Nova Scotia Ministry of Health and Emergency we can use the tools they have developed to also ensure the health care system is adapted for resilience in the face of changing climate. Linda Varangu Executive Director Canadian Coalition for Green Health Care

The Canadian Coalition for Green Health Care We envision the health sector as a leader in integrating environmentally responsible practices into the delivery of health care. National not-for-profit Membership ≈ 40% of Canadian hospital beds Updated our objectives to specifically include climate change

Health Care Facility Resiliency Toolkit: HC Facility Climate Change Resiliency Toolkit 2 Health Care Facility Resiliency Toolkit: Facilitator Presentation The Resiliency Checklist Resources The final toolkit consists of three parts….. During the piloting phase, officials indicated that a facilitators guide would be helpful to guide the assessment process. While a resources guide would help officials know how to increase resiliency once results were obtained. Facilitator Power-point presentation for hospital facilitator How facilitators can use the presentation Benefits of assessing health care facility resiliency to climate change Introduction to climate change impacts on health care facilities Guidance on how to complete the health care facility resiliency assessment checklist and use of results Toolkit General (4 questions) Assessing Climate Related Risks (19 questions) Risk Management to Reduce Climate Related Risks (45 questions) Procurement of health care resources and supplies Notifications, monitoring, and surveillance Clinical risk management Infrastructure and systems risk management Energy supply and use Building Capacity to Adapt to Climate Change (14 questions) Sustainable health care and climate change mitigation HC Facility Climate Change Resiliency Toolkit www.greenhealthcare.ca/resiliency/

Climate Change Resiliency Mentoring Program Enhance education/knowledge of climate change impacts on health care facilities and delivery of care Webinars, resource materials, information sharing Support for Checklist use Step-by-step Checklist review to better enable Resiliency Champion to administer at own facility Conference calls, onsite visits, one-to-one advise Expert mentoring from hospital (UHN) Information sharing between participants Support resiliency/adaptation options development
