AGENDA ITEMS:

New Research Staff

We are happy to welcome Charlotte Logeman, new Project Coordinator on the Slaight Research Team!

  • Charlotte will assist in coordinating a project that will support the development of resources, training tools, and evaluation of the NAVIGATE model of care.

ECHO

Implementation – ECHO

  • Abanti, Nikki and Sanjeev have met and discussed next steps in terms of the ECHO sessions

  • Accreditation is ending so have to make a decision on whether to extend/build curriculum further

  • Experience with other ECHOs is that people are feeling need to engage in Community of Practice

  • Can think about aligning the ECHOs to include informal sessions that bring people together

  • Clinicians would bring their own challenges and discuss, as opposed to formal case presentation

  • Would be interspersed with regular ECHOs later on

  • Next planning meeting has been scheduled for Friday

Collaboration Space/Forum

  • The forum for clinician Q&A would be separate from live ECHO; discussions on the forum would be used to inform ECHO sessions

  • Decision: we are going to revisit the forum, pause development at this time

  • PSSP has already established momentum by creating a strategic plan for the forum, and could use pre-existing EPION space in EENet

  • The EENet forum could be linked on the EPI-SET website so clinicians would not need to remember more web addresses

  • The forum will not be on the EPI-SET website since notifications are not well supported

  • The next step would be for Jeff to set-up a meeting with Dayna, Andrea, Laura and the EENet team.

Implementation/Onboarding/Training

  • COVID-19 Tips document for sites is nearly finalized

  • The document will be posted on the website and shared with sites

  • Laura and Andrea have uploaded all NAVIGATE documents for clinicians to the website

  • The COVID-19 document includes links to all NAVIGATE documents on the site

Advisory Committees

Advisory Committee Engagement Report Presentation - Dr. Simone Dahrouge

  • We don’t have a very large sample size so we will try to report back every 3 months

  • Advisory members expressed most interest in: conveying their experience, relaying the needs of patients and helping identify patient priorities

  • There was less interest about informing study design/operation

  • Overall, members feel comfortable contributing during their monthly meetings

FAC-specific results

  • Observed changes in how people felt in their ability to contribute earlier in the year

  • The FAC had good discussions about this with Dr. Voineskos and Dr. Foussias

  • It was decided that having a rotating schedule of committee leads attending the FAC and YAC would be beneficial

  • The FAC also supported the creation of a newsletter to highlight their contributions and study progress since this is a large study

  • The RAs have been really good about connecting people

  • Although there is a low sample size, the data is interesting

  • It is important to note that due to COVID-19, some members have not been able to attend/submit survey feedback

  • Also important to note the recent addition of new members may impact the dynamic of the group

YAC-specific results

  • There are fewer people at these meetings, but overall people feel they can express their views and have their views heard

  • Since there is a small number of respondents to the surveys, members may not want to respond according to how they feel because it may be intimidating

  • Solution: we can group several months of results together to aggregate data for a higher sample size

Lead-specific results

  • Positive overall, the leads feel comfortable

  • The leads have a lot of responsibility, but Laura has been awesome at helping and contributing

Youth and Family Advisory Committee Meetings

  • Janet and the Implementation Evaluation team to attend this Friday’s YAC meeting

  • New FAC member joining next month

Patient Measures

Recruitment Update

  • To date, we have enrolled 7 youth participants

  • We just received a new referral from Durham, and are trying to schedule 3 participants

Site Updates

  • Sudbury and Waterloo are ready to start research recruitment!

  • Dielle/RAs will be attending monthly site team meetings to discuss recruitment strategies and clinician engagement

  • Niagara: Dielle is following up with Kerri about involving the Niagara peer support worker in recruitment

  • Thunder Bay is interested in the research component, so Dayna is scheduling a meeting this week with Jen to get started on admin, REB and contracts for Thunder Bay
