If Raynelle Wilson is a brilliant innovative thinker who has amazing ideas for improving healthcare in Saskatchewan, she could have been contracted by @SaskHealth in a consulting/advisory role. A 6 month consulting contract would be reasonable (1/4)
VP positions with @SaskHealth empower the persons in those position to make major decisions about the SHAs operations. One needs deep experience in healthcare to credibly serve in such roles. Most SHA VP teams are dyads that include an MD + experienced manger (1/2)
Parachuting a person with no prior healthcare management experience into the @SaskHealth ELT is a travesty. It is likely to cause justifiable stress in the ELT.
It may cause current experienced ELT members to leave these roles & weaken our leadership capacity (1/3)
Maybe Merriman's end game here is to have Raynelle Wilson compete for appointment as @SaskHealth COO or CEO, with an expectation /demand on his part that she be appointed by a passive interim CEO and/or a compliant Board that has lost its ethical moorings (1/4)

As a Saskatchewan citizen I invested an enormous amount of time & energy into the process that culminated in the creation of the SHA. I am deeply concerned about some of the things that are currently happening at the SHA. I believe all citizens should be concerned (1/21)
Through evidence from high quality health services research & feedback from patients/families, in 2016 concern arose that delivery of health services through 13 autonomous geographically-defined RHAs was yielding fragmented patient care (2/21)
On August 18, 2016, the Government of Saskatchewan appointed a 3 member Advisory Panel on Health System Structure to review the Regional Health Authority structure. The Panel was given 4 well defined mandates & asked to submit its report in 3 months (3/21)

Minister Merriman said about Raynelle Wilson, “What we needed was an individual who was able to help out with the logistical side of the SHA,” Merriman said. “We are in a challenging time with our health authority & we needed to have the right people in the right places.” (1/5)
That begs the question "What does the logistical side" really mean. The term "logistics" is generally understood to mean "the detailed coordination of a complex operation involving many people, facilities, or supplies."
(1/2)
"Logistics" within @SaskHealth is managed by the Chief Operating Officer (C00). That position is currently filled on an interim basis by Derek Miller, a very competent member of the SHAs Executive Leadership Team (ELT).

Got this DM from a teacher who is troubled by COVID close contact policy in her school. Not my area of expertise. Can someone offer her guidance?
I’m kind of at my wit’s end and was wondering if you have any idea of whether or not this sounds right to you. (1/6)
I have a grade 6 classroom. I had a mom report to me that her daughter had tested positive. She was last at school on Thursday. I reported to my vice principal and she let me know that our division has been informed but they are only going back 24 hours. (2/6)
So, my whole class was together all day Thursday, the child was away Friday. Now my families won’t even be notified. I have a number of kids who are not fully vaccinated but are still able to go to Phys. ED unmasked and play in extra curriculars(also unmasked). (3/6)

Recent events at @SaskHealth have promoted me to review the Report of the Advisory Panel on Health System Restructuring on which I served with Brenda Abrametz & Tyler Bragg. I reviewed our recommendations on governance of a provincial health authority (1/6)
This was the 3rd mandate of the Panel:
Review current legislation
and processes to ensure they adequately
establish: the roles of health systems
Boards; their composition; structure and
reporting relationship to achieve appropriate
accountability (2/6)
"The Advisory Panel believes that a singular Provincial Health Authority governed by an Expert Board will achieve greater health system integration, coordination & have the greatest capacity to achieve more seamless patient care" (3/6)
