Reforming Licensure Pathways for Internationally Educated Nurses in Canada
Background Amid longstanding nursing shortages, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, federal, provincial, and territorial governments across Canada prioritized the recruitment of internationally educated nurses (IENs). As a result, nursing regulators were strongly encouraged to implement a range of policy shifts to reduce licensure barriers. The nature and scope of these reforms have varied across jurisdictions. Objective To identify and compare…
On-Demand and Marketplace Platforms
With worker shortages and the need for care workers projected to grow, personal care work through digital labour platforms (DLPs) is important to understand. This paper considers DLPs used by gig care workers providing personal care in Ontario, Canada. We recruited 20 women gig care workers for interviews. We examined socio-technical processes such as signing up on platforms, creating profiles, and searching for jobs. We draw on Institutional Eth…
Weight Communication
This study aimed to investigate how health professionals (HPs) communicate about weight with their patients. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 33 health professionals (7 family physicians, 13 nurse practitioners, and 13 dietitians) working in multidisciplinary healthcare settings in Canada. Thematic analysis revealed four main approaches used by HPs to communicate about weight: 1) Analyzing patient perspectives, 2) focusing on overal…

A Gendered Analysis of Work, Stress and Mental Health, Among Professional and Non-Professional Workers
This study examines the differences in mental health experiences of workers in professional and non-professional roles, with a particular focus on the influence of gender. We examine: i) the perceived mental health of a subset of professional workers including accounting, academia, dentistry, medicine, nursing, and teaching, chosen because they represent different gender composition and sectors; and ii) work stress and work absences. Statistical …
Evidence use in equity focused health impact assessment
The findings of this study provide a realist perspective on evidence use in practice, specifically for EFHIA. These findings can inform ongoing development and refinement of various knowledge translation interventions, particularly for practitioners delivering front-line public health services
Healthcare workers 'on the move
Many healthcare workers are 'on the move' as part of their employment, travelling often great distances to such places as patients'/clients' homes and community clinics. Healthcare workers' experiences of this employment-related geographic mobility have been relatively invisible even though mobility is necessary for home and community care. Interviews with professional (e.g. nurses) and paraprofessional (e.g. personal care assistants) healthcare …
The Relationship of Safety with Burnout for Mobile Health Employees
Employees' confidence in occupational safety while addressing work responsibilities on the road has implications for their experience of job burnout
The inclusion of migrants in health impact assessments
This article reports the findings of a scoping review assessing the extent and ways in which migrants have been included in health impact assessments (HIAs) and HIA evaluations worldwide. A total of 117 HIAs and two HIA evaluations were included. Only 14% of hand-searched HIAs mentioned migrants, 5% analysed migrants and only 2% included them in their recommendations. Nonetheless, migrants would be expected to be part of the analysis based on the…

Qualitative research and the politics of knowledge in an age of evidence
Understanding the social organisation of maternity care systems
Theories of professions and healthcare organisation have difficulty in explaining variation in the organisation of maternity services across developed welfare states. Four countries - the United Kingdom, Finland, the Netherlands and Canada - serve as our case examples. While sharing several features, including political and economic systems, publicly-funded universal healthcare and favourable health outcomes, these countries nevertheless have dis…
Delivering the 'new' Canadian midwifery
This paper addresses the impact on midwifery of its recent integration into the provincial health care system in Ontario, Canada. Data are derived from participant-observation, primary and secondary source documents, and key informant interviews. Based on these data, I argue that midwifery has changed throughout the integration process but it has also successfully resisted change. Specifically, the organisation of the midwifery community evolved …
Decline vs. retention of medical power through restratification
Though some argue that medical power is declining, others disagree. In particular, Freidson assets that medicine is being restratified with medical elites retaining control over health care though practitioners are losing their individual autonomy to these elites. We use the case of state‐medicine relationships in Ontario to examine the restratification thesis. Our findings indicate that the state partially controls medicine through restratificat…
