Highlights
Fairmount Home residents are billed monthly for miscellaneous expenditures and their share of rent based on standard rates set by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. The 2015 annual review of accounts receivable resulted in write-offs totalling approximately $18,000 after following policies for collection of overdue accounts.
Every three years long-term care homes must submit a planning submission to the Local Health Integration Network (LHIN). The Long-Term Care Homes Accountability Planning Submission (LAPS), a planning document that provides information about an individual long-term care home (LTCH), supports the negotiation of the Long-Term Care Home Service Accountability Agreement (LSAA) with the LHIN. The L-SAA is the service accountability agreement between a long-term care home licensee and the LHIN and is required by the Local Health Systems Integration Act (LHSIA). It assists the LHIN in fulfilling its obligations to the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC), the Province and the taxpayers in respect of funding as well as its obligations under LHSIA to plan, fund and integrate the local health system. The LAPS and L-SAA were signed for the 3-year period 2016-2019.
Fairmount Home recruited a Medical Director, Dr. Katherine Kilpatrick, who started in March 2016. Mrs. Gail Williams, Assistant Director of Care will be retiring in August.
Fairmount Home experienced two outbreaks during the first quarter of 2016. The legislated reporting was completed to the required ministries. The management and staff’s expertise and professionalism in outbreak management was appreciated.
Fairmount Home underwent its annual Resident Quality Inspection in January 2016 by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC). The public version of the report is available on the MOHLTC’s Reports on Long-Term Care Homes website. All recommendations contained in the report will be acted upon by management and staff.

Highlights
The Queen’s Study on Community Paramedicine was presented to Council in February 2016. The Ministry of Health and Long Term Care (MOHLTC) will be looking at community paramedicine projects as part of the “Patients First; Action Plan for Health Care” initiatives. FPS will be forming an Advisory Committee to look at opportunities to leverage future funding.
The County of Lennox & Addington put forth a request to three (3) neighbouring Counties (Hastings, Renfrew and Frontenac) for financial support to keep their northern base in Denbigh open. All three (3) Counties have passed resolutions indicating they are not prepared to enter into such an arrangement. Part of the rationale is that the “download” of land ambulance was seamless and the ability to bill for cross border activity is the past practice and should continue.
Council of the County of Frontenac authorized the CAO and Treasurer to award the contract to Rowland Emergency and Specialty Vehicles to supply the Stryker
Report to RULAC Highlights of Fairmount Home and Frontenac Paramedic Services Reports – December 2015 to June 2016 September 12, 2016 Page 5 of 6
Power-Pro XT Powered Ambulance Cot and the Automated Stryker PowerLoading System as per the proposal received on January 26th, 2016.
The performance of FPS to the Legislated Response Time Standard was reported to Council. FPS met and in fact exceeded its stated targets in 2015.
Paramedic Week celebrations are occurring during this week of May 22nd to 29th, 2016 including a display at the Cataraqui Mall, staff BBQ in City Park and staff recognition.
Two FPS Paramedics were recognized by the Hon. Dr. Eric Hodgins, Minister of Health, on May 12 at a ceremony held at Queen’s Park. Paramedics Dale Hodgins and Joe Ferguson were awarded the Ontario Award of Paramedic Bravery. See article: http://www.thewhig.com/2016/05/18/frontenac-paramedicsrecognized-for-heroic-act
