‘ 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…
Unveiling the Impact and Diverse Contributions of Champions in Community Initiatives for Elderly Individuals with Chronic Conditions
In response to the global rise in chronic diseases among aging populations, healthcare systems are transitioning from acute care models to community‐based interventions tailored to the diverse needs of older adults. This study aimed to explore the role of champions in implementing community‐based interventions for older adults with chronic conditions to address the gap in understanding the specific functions and impact of champions in these conte…
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…
Examining critical reflection skills in an undergraduate gerontology course
Experiential learning and reflection activities are often used to enhance students’ understanding of and attitudes toward aging; however, deep reflection is difficult to achieve, and research shows students demonstrate varying abilities to reflect. This study examined the extent to which students in a third-year gerontology course were able to engage in reflection after completing an assignment that included an interview with an older adult. Data…
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 …

“I was giving someone who didn’t have a voice a voice”
In the study of gerontology, fieldwork with older adults is often used to enhance students’ understanding of the aging process. While assignments based on interactions with older adults are a common practice in teaching students enrolled in gerontology studies, we know less about the impact of such activities on students from other disciplines. This paper summarizes students’ experiences with an assignment offered to a diverse cohort of undergrad…
Years Later
Since 1996, the Canadian Evaluation Society (CES) has held an annual case competition for college and university students. By 2016, a total of 1,132 students had participated. An online questionnaire was sent to 768 participants with available email addresses; eight additional participants entered the study after viewing an online posting. The questionnaire was completed by 112 former participants (response rate: 14%). Findings suggest that parti…
Interventions to Reduce Ageism Against Older Adults

Little is known, however, about the effectiveness of strategies to reduce ageism. Objectives. To assess the relative effects of 3 intervention types designed to reduce ageism among youths and adults—education, intergenerational contact, and combined educ…
Prevalence of Financial Fraud and Scams Among Older Adults in the United States
Background. The financial exploitation of older adults was recently recognized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a serious public health problem. Knowledge of the prevalence of elder financial exploitation is mostly limited to the category of financial abuse, which occurs in relationships involving an expectation of trust. Little is known about the other major category of elder financial exploitation—elder financial fraud and s…

This article reports on an evaluation of an innovative, but time‐limited, home‐school support project, designed to improve the behaviour of young children in danger of school exclusion. It concludes that, although valued by the families and schools involved, the effective operation of the initiative was hampered by problems of communication, by its single agency location and by the short‐term nature of its funding.
