‘ You’re alive, but are you living? ’ Exploring long Covid (LC)’s impact on social and leisure well-being for individuals and caregivers
Long COVID (LC) affects physical health and cognition, limiting participation in social and leisure activities. As a novel disabling condition following a COVID-19 infection, informal caregivers of those with LC have taken on expanded roles, including educating themselves on this diagnosis. Gathering insights from people living with LC (PWLC) and their caregivers is crucial for understanding its impact on well-being and identifying targeted rehab…
Methodological Insights From an Experience-Based Co-Design Method Applied to a Study of Older Adults Living with HIV's Perspectives on Virtual Geriatric Care
This paper outlines the application of Experience-Based Co-Design (EBCD) to explore the perspectives of older adults living with HIV regarding virtual geriatric care. The study focuses on identifying the unique needs, challenges, and preferences of this population in the context of remote healthcare delivery models. EBCD, a participatory research method, engages service users, healthcare providers, and stakeholders in co-designing solutions to im…
Patients, Caregivers, and Healthcare Providers’ Experiences with Covid Care and Recovery across the Care Continuum
Inpatient rehabilitation was viewed as higher quality due to the slower paced care. Care transitions were distressing for stakeholders and enhanced integration between acute and rehabilitation care were suggested to improve patient handover. A lack of rehabilitation access led to recovery stagnating for patients discharged to the community. Telerehab may improve the transition to home and ensure access to adequate rehabilitation and support in th…
Co-Creating Socio-Culturally-Appropriate Virtual Geriatric Care for Older Adults Living With HIV
The aging cohort of persons living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in Canada has reached a critical point, with nearly half now 50 years age or older. Older persons living with HIV have specific needs which can be effectively addressed by geriatric specialists. However, the recognition of HIV care as a domain of geriatrics is recent, resulting in a lack of clinical recommendations and modern care models for delivering geriatric care to th…
Infection prevention and control across the continuum of Covid‐19 care
INTRODUCTION: Healthcare facilities adopted restrictive visitor policies as a result of the COVID-19 (COVID) pandemic. Though these measures were necessary to promote the safety of patients, families and healthcare providers, it led to isolation and loneliness amongst acute care inpatients that can undermine patient rehabilitation and recovery. The study objectives were to (1) explore how infection prevention and control (IP&C) measures impacted …

How does peer similarity influence adult children caregivers' perceptions of support from peers? A mixed-method study
Due to the growing elderly population, adult children care-givers (ACCs) are increasingly providing complex care for one or both elderly parents. Social support from similar peers can mitigate care-giving-related health declines. To date, ‘peer similarity’ amongst care-givers has been predominantly investigated in the context of peer-matching interventions. However, because peer similarity is especially influential in ‘naturally occurring’ suppor…
