Statement of Purpose for the Strategic Plan
The purpose of the strategic plan for the UIHHSS Rehabilitation Program is to ensure that the program makes a strategic contribution to the mission of the Hospital and the University.
The UIHHSS Rehabilitation Program Mission Statement
The mission of the rehabilitation program is to provide excellent quality, patient-centered inpatient rehabilitation services, to promote a culture of respect within the medical center for persons with disabilities and to provide excellent quality educational experiences for students in the health professions.
Vision for the UI Health System’s Rehabilitation Program
The UIH Rehabilitation Program is perceived within the Health System and the Chicago Rehabilitation Community as offering comprehensive inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services through a variety of interdisciplinary programs with a specialization in servicing patients who have sustained a cerebral vascular accident.
The vision for the Inpatient Rehabilitation Services is to offer Comprehensive Medical Rehabilitation Unit on an expanded 25 bed rehab unit (currently UIH Rehabilitation has Medicare certification for 18 beds). The vision for Outpatient Services to increase multidisciplinary follow-up to patients who need outpatient services.
The UIH Rehabilitation Program make significant contributions to the mission of the University through the provision of excellent patient care, high quality education of health professionals and an active program of rehabilitation research. UIH Rehabilitation Professional Staff have an active role in facilitating the full participation of persons with disabilities through campus and community activities and share their expertise in local and national forums.
SWOT Analysis with Rehab Unit Staff
Strengths
1) Skilled staff

6) Patient focused care
7) Access to students
8) Continuity of care and easy transition from acute care to rehab since we usually keep same therapists
9) Improved space in PT gym and OT room
10) Stroke support group

7) Staffing quantity (not quality) – all disciplines
8) Lack of weekend and evening activities
9) Practice stairs in the dayroom
10) Patient schedules – when unit full, not as consistent with schedule so patient not aware of changes
11) Communication on patient needs for ADLs between therapy and nursing so patient ready for therapy
12) Recreational therapy
13) Patients not eating in the dayroom consistently for at least one meal
14) Process of scheduling OP therapies
15) Depart Process
16) Management of space
17) Patients having and taking correct equipment at discharge
18) Inaccurate and late FIM data entry

Opportunities

5) Increase our links to community (public service)
6) More external referrals
7) Increase number of patient beds

14) Analysis of outcomes for specific patient groups
Threats
1) Increase in census without adequate staffing could result in lower quality and lower patient/staff satisfaction
2) Patient safety secondary to faulty or lack of equipment
3) Nurses that aren’t rehab nurses floating to frequently to the unit
4) Adequate spacing - Particularly challenging patients in terms of social and economic issues (limited social support; limited or no insurance) resulting in less stable discharge environments
5) New initiatives in healthcare and the impact for Rehab
6) Decreased budget might cut CE for staff
7) Lack of private beds – patients will choose to go elsewhere
8) Undocumented/uninsured patients
9) Budget cuts
10) Lack of compliance with all rules and regulations of rehab
11) Administrative support - No intake coordinator or data manager can decrease admissions and decrease reimbursements
Current Environment
Identified Strengths by Rehab Leadership
• The Inpatient Rehabilitation Staff members are team and patient oriented, they have a positive attitude about rehabilitation and they are committed to achieving good outcomes for our patients.
• The unit shows good profitability per case
• Clinical outcomes for effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction are very good. Business measures have also surpassed budgeted expectations.
Identified Opportunities for Improvement
• The rehabilitation unit is small compared to other services. Our annual discharges are low compared to the other highly profitable services. A higher number of discharges and a higher ADC would be beneficial to the Health System and would likely bring increased recognition and support to the unit.
• More than 95% of our referrals come from within UIHHSS.
• The accessibility of the UIHHSS environment and the overall appearance of the unit and the patient rooms.
• Compliance with input of FIM scores is poor across all disciplines.
Priorities
• Continue to provide care of unmistakable high quality
• Build the census
• Demonstrate the contribution the unit makes to the patient care continuum and the financial health of the organization
• Compliance with input of FIM scores as well as accuracy of FIM scoring
• Staffing levels to be appropriate for full census
• Having appropriate equipment to treat patients of varying diagnoses on the Rehabilitation Unit
