Leveraging context-specific behavioral economic principles to enable patients to change their physical activity patterns
This study explores how context-specific behavioral economic principles could be employed to tailor interventions to support patients' efforts to modify day-to-day routines. Using adapted geo-ethnography techniques, interviews collected in-depth descriptions about facilitators and barriers to physical activity (PA), and contexts influencing decisions about day-to-day activities. Data were analyzed using the COM-B model for behavior change and MIN…
Time-Use Sequences
This study demonstrates the potential for interventions to integrate tools for collecting and communicating spatial and temporal contexts of patient routines, such as the types of activities that characterize how patients spend significant portions of time and identification of when, where, and how to encourage health-promoting changes in routine activities. Time-use patterns provide insight for tailoring behavior change interventions so that cli…
The Correctional Services Canada Institutional Mother Child Program
Women are the fastest growing population in federal prison in Canada. Women's incarceration has significant implications for families, as approximately two-thirds have children who face intergenerational trauma, risk of criminalization, and health concerns. The Correctional Services Canada Mother Child Program allows children up to age six to live with their incarcerated mothers. Publicly available information about outcomes associated with the p…
Advocates’ perspectives on the Canadian prison mother child program
Over twenty years ago, Correctional Services Canada launched the Mother Child Program (MCP) to mitigate harms of separating incarcerated mothers from their babies. It has never been subjected to internal evaluation or independent study. The aim of the qualitative study was to explore the experiences of advocates employed by Elizabeth Fry Societies (EFS), community organizations dedicated to the support of incarcerated women, with respect to suppo…

Priority measures for publicly reporting primary care performance
OBJECTIVE: While public reporting of hospital-based performance measurement is commonplace, it has lagged in the primary care sector, especially in Canada. Despite the increasing recognition of patients as active partners in the health-care system, little is known about what information about primary care performance is relevant to the Canadian public. We explored patient perspectives and priorities for the public reporting of primary care perfor…
Addressing quadruple aims through primary care and public health collaboration
Primary care and public health collaborations can strengthen community-based primary health care while addressing the Quadruple Aims with an emphasis on reducing health inequities but requires attention to collaboration barriers and enablers
Designing an intervention to improve sexual health service use among university undergraduate students
This study details the use of the Behaviour Change Wheel to develop an intervention aimed at improving university students' use of sexual health services. The Behaviour Change Wheel provided a comprehensive framework for integrating multiple sources of data to inform the selection of intervention strategies. Stakeholders can use these strategies to design and implement sexual health service interventions that are feasible within the context of th…
Implementation strategy for advanced practice nursing in primary health care in Latin America and the Caribbean
Advanced practice nursing (APN) is a term used to describe a variety of possible nursing roles operating at an advanced level of practice. Historically, APN roles haves evolved informally, out of the need to improve access to health care services for at-risk and disadvantaged populations and for those living in underserved rural and remote communities. To address health needs, especially ones related to primary health care, nurses acquired additi…
