The Registry include…
Where low-income seniors receive their heart health and diabetes information
Family physicians with older adult patients could better supplement their health assessments by promoting and explaining educational brochures, and ensuring that they address these health topics to better communicate chronic disease prevention
Effects of the Community Paramedicine at Clinic (CP@clinic) program on the health behaviours of older adults residing in social housing
ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02152891, registered June 6, 2014
Sars-CoV-2 testing, test positivity and vaccination in social housing residents compared with the general population
BACKGROUND: The consideration of unique social housing needs has largely been absent from the COVID-19 response, particularly in tailoring strategies to improve access to testing and vaccine uptake among vulnerable and high-risk populations in Ontario. Given the growing population of social housing residents, this study aimed to compare SARS-CoV-2 testing, positivity, and vaccination rates in a social housing population with those in a general po…
Chronic disease prevalence and preventive care among Ontario social housing residents compared with the general population
BACKGROUND: Older adults living in social housing report poor health and access to healthcare services. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of chronic diseases, influenza vaccination and cancer screenings among social housing residents versus non-residents in Ontario, Canada. METHODS: We conducted a population-based cohort study for all health-insured Ontarians alive and aged 40 or older as of 1 January 2020. Social housing residents were…

The poverty rate was lower than expected which could be related to the surrounding environment and perceptions around wealth. Food insecurity was approximately twice that of the general population of older adults in Canada, which could be related to inaccessibility and increased barriers to healthy foods. For those who reported being food secure, dietary habits were considered poor. While social housing may function as a financial benefit and red…
Feasibility of implementing a community cardiovascular health promotion program with paramedics and volunteers in a South Asian population
Implementing CP@clinic in places of worship is a feasible approach to adapting the program for the South Asian population, however having a funded translator in addition to the volunteers would improve the program. Also, there is substantial opportunity for addressing cardiometabolic risk factors in this population using CP@clinic
