| Quality Domain | Client Meaning | Provider Meaning |
| Safe | I will not be harmed by the health system. | The care my client receives does not cause them to be harmed. |
| Effective | I receive the right care, and it contributes to improving my health. | The care I provide is based on best evidence and produces the desired outcome. |

| Timely | I know how long I have to wait to see a provider or for assessments or care I need and why. I am confident this wait time is safe and appropriate. | My client can receive care within an acceptable time after the need is identified. |
| Equitable | No matter who I am, what I have, or where I live, I can access services that meet my needs. I am fairly treated by the health care system. | My clients and the populations I serve are provided differential approaches to access and service delivery as required in order to address systemic barriers and societal injustices ensuring every individual has access to the services they need, positive care experiences and outcomes, regardless of location, age, gender, race and other determinants of health. |

Client Experience Data Presentation
Patient/client experiences are a rich source of information for designing and implementing a high quality health care system. Measuring patient/client experience improves our understanding of care needs and preferences, and supports a person-centred approach to care delivery. In Ontario, there are gaps and inconsistencies in how patient/client experience is measured across and within care settings. Federal (e.g., CIHI), provincial (e.g., Ontario Health), and provider organizations and associations are working to develop an approach and tools to ensure that we are collecting comprehensive, valid and timely data on patient/client experience with health care. This presentation will share the experience of developing a coordinated patient/client experience measurement strategy and associated opportunities and challenges.

This has been a year of constant change. The world around us transformed rapidly. In the face of the uncertainty and upheaval caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, living our values has never been more important. Support House’s Centre for Innovation in Peer Support saw how having a strong set of core values allowed us to respond quickly to change and to continue to meet the needs of both clients and staff. We have always driven for responsive change in our system.
To truly harness the energy of people power and what it takes to deliver services that bring enormous value - means living those values. Every. Single. Time. It is more than a filter. It is a standard of caring to meet and exceed a benchmark of excellence that is based on human interaction, building relationships, being reflexive and reflective, being honorable and kind. Always aspiring to do the RIGHT thing – no matter how many barriers are in the way. Tenacity. Grit. Teamwork. Hard Work. True co-design in Human Services cannot seed, grow, or flourish without the humanity and humility to hear what people are saying, needing and/or wanting. Whether that be people receiving services, people delivering services or people working to create the policy, governance and/or funding. At Support House’s Centre for Innovation in Peer Support we thrive in the art of possibility.
