Child health services research with the people who know best
In the twenty-first century, granting organizations and journals increasingly expect health services research to include the active participation and voices of people with lived experience in studies relevant to their lives. This paper reports the 30-year history of engagement between CanChild Centre for Childhood-Onset Disability Research and families of children with neurodisabilities. We offer a brief background history of how these activities…
How Is Equity‐Based Co‐Creation Enacted in Health and Social Services? An Evaluation of Four Case Studies
INTRODUCTION: Co-creation processes are part of a movement to create change in collaboration with people with lived and living experience (PWLLE); in this paper we focus on experience with health and social services. Research co-creation with PWLLE is increasing, however, processes tend to include people who are well connected in health and research environments, often excluding equity-deserving groups (EDGs) who experience barriers to engagement…
Advancing a collective vision for equity‐based cocreation through prototyping at an international forum

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this international forum (CoPro2022) was …

The McMaster University Co-Design Hub with Vulnerable Populations Hub (‘the Hub’) is a three-year interdisciplinary project with the goal of…
Informed Strangers
Nursing students occupy a unique perspective in clinical settings because they are informed, through education, about how patient care ought to happen. Given the brevity of placements and their "visiting status" in clinical sites, students are less invested in the ethos of specific sites. Subsequently, their perspectives of quality care are informed by what should happen, which might differ from that of nurses and patients. The purpose of this st…
