2 Outline The Fundamental Role of Leadership Leadership Principles –Vision –Values –Human Technology –Data –Staff Performance –Plan Development

3 Successfully Reducing S/R Use Changes the way we do business Changes the way we view our customers Changes the way we see our own roles Requires and results in a culture change that occurs over time Requires effective, committed leadership…

4 How Does this Practice Change Occur? Leadership – “ Carrying the mantle ” Leadership – Planning the strategy Leadership – Taking action Leadership – Following through Leadership – Mentoring and developing new leaders developing new leaders

5 The Role of Leadership The most important component in successful reduction projects. Only Leadership has the authority to make the changes that are necessary for success: –Make S/R reduction a high priority –Assure for Reduction Plan Development –Reduce/eliminate organizational barriers, including changing policy and procedures –Provide or re-allocate the necessary resources –Hold people accountable for their actions

6 The Power of Leadership The power of Leadership in creating change is mostly within our control Used ineffectively, or not at all, it becomes the major barrier in any effective organizational change Leadership can be considered the most important and fundamental resource in any project seeking culture change (Anthony, 2004)

7 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Creating the Vision 1)The essence of Leadership is the ability to motivate one’s staff to action around a shared vision e.g… Reducing the use of seclusion and restraint Creating non-violent and non-coercive treatment cultures Implementing a trauma-informed system of care. (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

8 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Creating the Vision A shared organizational vision is like a magnet - it attracts to it people with special characteristics. Organizational Vision or Policy Statements can be pieces of paper or they can energize and mobilize the organization in common cause (Anthony, 2004)

9 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Creating the Vision Vision/policy statements can provide a sense of purpose and meaning to staff, service recipients, families and the community Must appeal to reason and emotions to be effective (Anthony, 2004) Must be shared with staff…

10 Leadership Sets Clear Goals Based on A Vision or Policy goal To reduce the use of seclusion and restraint by defining and articulating a vision, philosophy, action plan and then holding people accountable To create a system of care that is fully informed and directed by the principles of trauma informed care that has as one outcome the reduced use of S/R

11 Leaders Articulate Agency Policy on S/R Use Based on Clear Goals Clear and unambiguous Restricts use only for “safety in response to imminent danger” Includes statement of agency’s expressed goal to reduce/eliminate and why Links reduction with agency philosophy of care and expressed values

12 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Living Organizational Values 2)Leaders create an organizational culture that identifies and tries to live by key values Values are the “organizational Velcro” that binds vision to operations Leaders must be clear about the values that underlie reducing violence and coercion Then they can start to team build… (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

13 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Living Organizational Values Leaders must get clarity and consensus on the values that underlie a different culture of care and service… For recovery/resiliency based settings…”From one that is rule-based, institutional, impersonal and at times coercive to one that is based on person- centered care, that is respectful, never shame-based and that strives to avoid homogenous approaches and generalities” (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

14 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Living Organizational Values Policy, procedures, treatment activities, language and rules need to be held up to this “values threshold” and measured against it When this happens, practices change… Agencies become “informed” about becoming congruent (what we say is what we do) (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

15 Leaders provide Values Clarification Takes thought, work, and time in meetings Requires planning from multiple stakeholders Many facilities still use consequence-based philosophies, not strength-based Often staff mistake the signs and symptoms of illness or learned coping strategies for willful acting out Review your treatment values and objectively critique whether current practices are working

16 For Example…

17 Crosswalk Values with Practices: Some Examples Value: Person Centered Care Practice: “Everyone goes to bed at 10:00 PM and lights out” Change: A range for bedtime that identifies and adapts to individual’s difficulty with night-time, bedrooms, and different bio-rhythms

18 Crosswalk Values with Practices: Some Examples Value: Consumer (adult, child/family) inclusion in treatment planning and care Practice: Consumers are “invited” to team meeting (but no one really cares if they do attend), and fill out satisfaction survey at discharge Change: Inclusion of consumers in committees, procedural reviews, Governing Body, unit rule reviews, employment opportunities, new employee orientation AND real work to educate patients in their place and power in treatment planning

19 Crosswalk Values with Practices: Some Examples Value: Facility is trauma-informed Practice: Trauma not formally assessed or included in treatment/crisis plans. Environment gives “mixed messages”: Rules posted, no welcome signs, institutional décor/color, metal detectors, searches, S/R rooms, does not feel warm… Change: Soften environment & reflect trauma awareness in treatment & facility operations

20 Crosswalk Values with Practices: Some Examples Value: Avoidance of triggers/shaming Practice: Public and verbal redirections and “deletion of points or privileges” for what staff deem undesirable behavior Change: Respectful, private discussion of level status/privileges and practices that immediately reward for pro-social behavior but avoid punitive subtractions

21 Crosswalk Values with Practices: Some Examples Value: S/R only used for “imminent danger” Practice: “Any kind of property destruction, threats, physical acting out results in S/R use” Change: People who engage in “one time only” hitting, break furniture, kick a staff person, throw something, lie down in middle of floor, or otherwise act out and calm down are not S/R; this behavior is addressed in treatment team planning WITH the individual

22 A note about language

23 See how we speak… De-humanizing Labeling and Language –Target populations, line staff, “in the trenches”, “take downs”, “aggression control” –Units, wards, lock downs, surveillance, strip searches, curfews, consequences, “handling” –Schizophrenics, THE mentally ill, borderlines; non- compliant, manipulative, attention- seeking, needy, juvees, –Case managers, Case workers, “cases”

24Reality Please do not ever believe that language is unimportant How would you like to be referred to as a “case” or to be “handled or controlled”? Of course the people we serve have needs (needy), require attention (attention- seeking), and have learned that to get attention they need to beg (attention-seeking)

25 Person First Language Chosen language to use for Recovery-Oriented systems of care A major change/shift from usual language Is culturally competent, respectful and person- centered Based on linguistic philosophy e.g. “How we speak about something is indicative of how we value and treat it” (IAPSRS, 2003)

26 Person First Language Promotes the use of words like individual, consumer, given names, service user in place of patient, client, inmate, resident or using a diagnosis when referring to persons served in the mental health system Never uses phrases like “the mentally ill” or “the retarded” or “a borderline personality disorder”

27 Person First Language Says that people are “people first” and that the routinized, consistent use of “one word” to describe groups of diverse individuals is dehumanizing, demeaning, ignores individuality, encourages a herd mentality and institutionalizes *Using one word, like “patient, client, or resident” is for staff convenience. Does not honor individuality. Use kids’ names! Encourages individualized/respectful descriptors that do not label

28 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Human Technology 3)Leaders create processes that develop & empower their staff Workforce development is imperative Staff become empowered to negotiate and empower customers; provide choices that are win:win Leaders allocate resources that assist in this process (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

29 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Human Technology Avoidance of trauma and re-traumatization becomes valued over rules, property damage and negotiation time Staff become change agents, without fear of repercussions A safe culture of CQI is embedded; one that understands that mistakes will be made but learning will occur (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

30 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Human Technology Leaders find champions and create teams Leaders put in place practices that provide staff with “prevention tools” and skills to use Adult, children, staff and families views are sought in all decisions (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004) (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

31 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Human Technology Especially important: The oversight of coercive events are elevated and consistently “witnessed” by staff who can objectively evaluate and make changes (Huckshorn, 2004) (Huckshorn, 2004)

32 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Human Technology Executive leadership creates opportunities to hear staff concerns on a routine basis –Informal “no management” Rap sessions with direct care staff –Lunch with CEO, COO, Med Director –Total staff “Town Center” meetings –Suggestion boxes –Feedback provided after meetings (Huckshorn, 2004) (Huckshorn, 2004)

33 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Data to Inform Practice (Six Core Strategies ©) 4)Leaders use information to drive change Gather historical data by event/hours (6 months to 1 year) to use as baseline Set goals as 100% reduction (as you would for adverse med errors or suicide attempts Mandatory: Gather and track multiple variables (S/R events & hrs; injuries, Stat meds) Post reports on units monthly

34 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Data to Inform Practice (Six Core Strategies ©) Use Data To Identify & Analyze Events: –Unit/Day/Shift/Time of day –Age/Gender/Race –Date of admission/Diagnosis –Attending Physician –Pattern of staff involved in events –Number of Grievances –Precipitating Events –Safety issues justifying seclusion/restraint

35 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Using Data to Inform Practice (Six Core Strategies ©) Use Data To: ― Monitor Progress ― Discover new best practices ― Identify emerging staff S/R champions ― Target certain units/staff for training ― Create healthy competition (PA, MA) ― Assure that everyone knows what is going on

36 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Valuing Exemplary Performance 5)Leaders build their organization around exemplary performers Best practices are recognized and rewarded Efforts are made to encourage reports of “near misses” and what worked Knowledge is transferred and sustained in policy, procedures, and practices (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004) (Anthony, 2004; Huckshorn, 2004)

37 Fundamental Principles of Leaders Develop a SR Reduction Plan 6) Leaders develop plan and approach Safety needs to start with a Prevention Umbrella Performance Improvement Principles (CQI) Create Facility/Unit Accountable Team Inclusive of person served

38 Leadership Responsibilities: Summary of Key Points S/R Reduction is PRIMARILY a leadership responsibility, not your staff’s Create the Vision Clarify Values Use Human Technology to change practice Use Data to Inform Value Top Performers Develop an Organized Plan

39 Leadership Specifics in Reducing the Use of Seclusion/Restraint These fundamental principles help set the stage Actions are characterized by the required denominator… Leadership Effectiveness and Responsibility to ACT Leadership Effectiveness and Responsibility to ACT “Do not follow where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail…” R.W. Emerson
