Subject: Re: Hawaii County PABEA March Report
Aloha PABEA, In liu of my attendance at today's PABEA mtg please accept my March report. 5 updates:
1. ADRCWe’ve received grant funds for FY 2018! The majority of these funds go towards the staffing/running of the ADRC: • 4 ADS I positions at 1.0 FTE (one currently unfilled)• 2 ADS I positions at 0.5 FTE (both filled)• 1 ADS II position
Updated tools for the ADRC and Case Management are much more succinct (shorter!) and questions are much more applicable for clients’ needs assessments. These include: • Initial Intake, now called the “Brief Assessment” ‐ this is done by the ADRC staff prior to making a referral to casemanagement. • In‐Home Assessment, now called the “Core Assessment” ‐ this is done by the case management service providers inthe client’s home at first home visit and during formal reassessment in the home. •We are currently in a short “demo” phase where ADRC and case management personnel are using the new tools intheir work.
EOA and the Hawaii Alzheimer’s Disease Initiative will be offering Dementia Capability training in Hilo on March 5 and in Kona on March 6.
2. No Wrong DoorEOA and its contractors are working on a second 3‐year plan for the development and implementation of: • Employee and organizational policies and training on person‐centered client care.• Regular discussion amongst agencies to identify gaps in services and the system (health and human services system).• Revisions to the proposed common referral form that would be used to make referrals amongst door (e.g. AAAs,DHS‐AMHD, VA, DHS MedQuest, etc.). • Incorporation of “knobs” ‐ generally these are non‐government agencies who frequently make referralsto “door” agencies.
Person‐centered trainings will be conducted by Hilo Pa’a (Leolinda Parlin) in Hilo over the course of the next few months and will be offered to any agencies who are considered “doors.”

3. Case Management We are currently working with our case management provider to transition from Shelly to Jolean who is temporary assigned to the Aging and Disability Services Manager position. We have a team working on revising and strengthening policies and RFP/contract content for KC case management and other KC home and community based services (the vendor pool). Case management currently has a waitlist of 30‐40 clients. This is a first and predicted by the office as we seem to be spending more time and money assessing the need then addressing the need. The wait time for services is about a month or more. The ADRC has been keeping in touch with SFS regarding cases that present high priority issues (e.g. lack of informal support, dementia, hospital discharge, etc.) and SFS has been very collaborative with this effort. HCOA will be awarding SFS a supplemental contract to boost their staffing and reduce the waitlist. • SFS case managers carry a caseload of about 35, which they consider high. For reference, the PHN in East Hawaii carries the most complex case management cases ‐ currently at 40+.
4. Providers HCOA had it's annual provider meeting last week with over 40 participants representing over 20+ contracts. Provider relations is stronger then its ever been with open collaboration, communication, and trust. 5. The ADRC Building No decision has been reached yet regarding the purchasing of our building. Finance will be making an offer next week and if accepted it has to be approved by the county council. Hoping for the best. Mahalo Kimo Executive Hawaii County
