Interprofessional Teams Supporting Care Transitions from Hospital to Community
Introduction: Poor outcomes following the transition from hospital back to community living are common, especially for older adults with complex health and social care needs. Some health care systems now have multiple interprofessional teams (in hospital and community) to support care transitions. These teams will need to be well coordinated to improve care transition outcomes. Methods: We conducted a scoping review to identify and map peer-revie…

A comparison of the Covid-19 response for urban underserved patients experiencing healthcare transitions in three Canadian cities
The pandemic response has exposed inequities for urban underserved populations experiencing care transitions; however, it has also exposed system strengths and opportunities for improvement to inform future policy direction
Measuring Processes of Integrated Care for Hospital to Home Transitions
Multiple measurement perspectives are needed to improve our understanding of how integrated care is being implemented. While chart review cannot address the full breadth of integrated care, it can help understand how processes of care are being implemented in routine daily care

Objective: To identify older adults who could benefit from integrated care, we examined (a) health, social, and functional characteristics of older, hospitalized adults who required continuing care on discharge and (b) associations between these characteristics and potentially unnecessary health care use. Method: Personal characteristics were extracted from patient charts ( N = 214) and examined in relation to three outcomes: discharge to institu…
How Important Is Having Amenities Within Walking Distance to Middle-Aged and Older Adults, and Does the Perceived Importance Relate to Walking
The study underscores the impact of a car culture where the tendency to drive is paramount. It suggests the need to promote the importance of walking as part of an active, healthy lifestyle
Sexual Orientation and Labor Economics
In attempting to ascertain various impacts on labor market outcomes using categories such as gender, race, ethnicity, and physical ability, a void exists with respect to sexual orientation. Whereas heterosexism and homophobia can explain some of the reasons for the void, the inability to collect data randomly about homosexuals' experiences in the labor market nullifies the basic tenet of all scientific research-random samples. A unique approach i…
