Deepening Understanding of Oasis, a Norc-Based Program
Background As the Canadian population ages, supporting older adults’ desire to age in their homes and communities is vital. Oasis is an older adult-driven program implemented within naturally occurring retirement communities (NORCs) that fosters social connections to support aging in place. While housing partners provide space for such programs, their perspectives are underexplored. Objective This study examined housing partners’ experiences (lan…
Using Personas as a Tool for People-Centred Segmentation and Health Systems Planning in Ontario, Canada
Introduction: Health systems are increasingly using population segmentation for planning to organise populations into segments with similar health characteristics. However, given that these data-driven approaches rely on available data, they fail to encompass important social determinants of health, thereby making decision-making challenging. Segmentation is powerful, but little is known about how missing information could be incorporated to more…
Oasis Senior Supportive Living
Introduction: According to the World Health Organization, in 2019, there were one billion people aged 60 years and older. This number is projected to rise to 2.1 billion by 2050. However, older adults living in the community often experience loneliness and other health consequences. Our existing service model, which is heavily focused on disease and lacks the involvement of service users, is not adequately prepared to address the diverse social a…
Community Support Providers in the Social Networks of Older Adults Living in Naturally Occurring Retirement Communities (Norcs)
Introduction: The world population is aging, and most people prefer to stay in their homes for as long as possible. There is a growing number of naturally occurring retirement communities (NORCs)—unplanned neighborhoods or apartment buildings with a high proportion of older adults—in many countries such as Australia, Canada, and the USA. To experience healthy aging, older adults living in NORCs must be surrounded by a quality network encompassing…

Investigating the role of self-selected STEM projects in fostering student autonomy and self-directed learning
Research in STEM education has focussed on integrated STEM projects that combine knowledge and skills across science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. These integrated STEM projects are typically designed by teachers or researchers addressing a limited range of topics that do not always cater well to the diversity of interest among children and adolescents. By contrast, self-selected projects where students have more choices and autonomy…
The Feasibility of the Diabetes Self-Management Coaching Program in Primary Care
This study demonstrated remarkable recruitment, retention, and adherence rates. The Diabetes Self-Management Coaching Program was feasible, acceptable, and implementable in primary care in Ethiopia. As a result, we recommend that a large-scale multi-center cluster randomized controlled trial with an adequate sample can be designed to evaluate the effect of the DSM Coaching Program on clinical and behavioral outcomes
All talk…only a little action
Background: Ontario Health Teams (OHTs) are a recently introduced model of delivery intended to integrate services to deliver connected care to defined populations in Ontario, Canada. The Quadruple Aim advocates for improving patient experience, reducing cost, advancing population health, and improving the provider experience; it is meant to be a guide for OHTs for performance outcomes and as a framework for evaluation and reporting. The Quintupl…

Contested occupation in place
Congregate living among older adults aims to enhance important aspects of well-being, such as sense of community and social engagement. Such settings, however, involve a complexity of social and power relations, and inclusion and exclusion along lines of occupation and place can occur. In this paper we develop a concept of contested occupation in place and use this concept to explore experiences of inclusion and exclusion in a seniors-only apartm…

Healthcare access experiences of persons with MS explored through the Candidacy Framework
Canada has one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis (MS) in the world, affecting 1 in every 385 individuals. This neurodegenerative condition is unpredictable and variable in symptom profile and disease course making it difficult to manage. Canadians with MS are high users of healthcare services; however, they report multiple unmet needs, high disease burden, and low satisfaction with healthcare. Access to healthcare is vital to health main…
Culturally Responsive Companion Program for a Japanese Woman with Dementia in a U.S. Nursing Home
Is it worth it
BACKGROUND: People with multiple sclerosis (MS) require complex care throughout life. Canadians with MS are high users of health-care services, yet still report unmet health-care needs and low satisfaction with services received. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the health-care access experiences of Ontarians with MS as they manage their condition. DESIGN AND PARTICIPANTS: Interpretive description guided data collection and analysis. Fo…
Optimizing Use in the Field of Program Evaluation by Integrating Learning from the Knowledge Field
It has been almost 20 years since Shulha and Cousins (1997) published their seminal paper exploring evaluation use. The paper examined a decade, 1986 to 1996, of theory, practice, and research on evaluation use. Since that time there have been significant developments related to the phenomenon of evaluation use. Outside of evaluation a new and burgeoning field has focused on the use of research in practice and policy; in health care the term know…
Supporting Knowledge Translation Through Evaluation
The evaluation literature has focused on the evaluation of knowledge translation activities, but to date there is little, if any, record of attempts to use evaluation in support of knowledge translation. This study sought to answer the question: How can an evaluation be designed to facilitate knowledge translation? A single prospective case study design was employed. An evaluation of a memory clinic within a primary care setting in Ontario, Canad…
Privatization and Welfare
This Article adopts a comparative perspective on the use of privatization by governments in the welfare context. It begins by reviewing the extent of welfare privatization in the US, the UK, and Ireland, considering notable examples such as privatized welfare-to-work schemes and residential care. For example, the question of privatized welfare accommodation in the UK has resulted in significant litigation and a major judgment on privatization han…
