Measuring speaker intent and awareness in language-discordant communication
When people share a language but differ in proficiency, higher proficiency speakers often adjust their speech for lower proficiency listeners. They might speak slower, simplify sentence structures, or use exaggerated articulation to support understanding and manage social dynamics. Speech accommodation across proficiencies (LX accommodation) can improve comprehension when it meets the needs of the lower proficiency speaker. However, it is not yet…
Leading through Uncertainty
Approach: ALIGN supports the development of leadership and governance in Ontario Health Teams (OHTs) – collaborative partnerships meant to shift Ontario’s health system towards more integrated care. To better understand their needs, the ALIGN team conducted semi-structured interviews with 12 OHTs. We asked about their current state and aspirations, challenges and enablers, and learning priorities with respect to leadership and governance. Uncerta…
Competencies for governing within integrated care
Background: Intersectoral models of healthcare delivery require different approaches for effective leadership and governance, and thus a different set of knowledge, skills, attributes and values, or competencies. Previous reviews of the literature have described the components, structures or mechanisms necessary for assessing and enabling health system governance or collaborative governance models, but have not explored the competencies needed fo…
Leadership Strategies for Developing Integrated Care
What are key challenges and enablers when it comes to leading integrated care? How does one develop new forms of governance, manage tensions between local and system priorities, or lead through uncertainty? Ontario Health Teams (OHTs) have been engaging with such questions for years. Join us for a workshop where we will explore these issues through conversation with leaders from multiple OHTs The workshop begins with a brief overview followed by …
Harnessing Embedded Research as a Strategy for Evidence-Informed Integrated Care Transformation - Lessons Learned from two Embedded Research Training Programs
Background: Embedded research is emerging as a key strategy to advance learning health systems and evidence-informed integrated care transformation. Embedded research aims to align research with the evidence needs of health system organizations and is intended to help inform organizational decision-making. To build the embedded research workforce and enhance capacity within health system organizations to engage with and draw value from embedded r…
Exploring Mechanisms that Facilitate the Development of Collaborative Governance Structures
Introduction: Globally, many health systems are moving toward integrated care. A Canadian example is the restructuring of care delivery in Ontario, to align with the Quadruple Aim. The vision for the Ontario Health Teams (OHTs), announced by the government in 2019, has prompted convergence across sectors with an initial focus on priority patient populations, and collaborative governance to achieve desired outcomes. The early implementation of OHT…
‘Safety is about partnership’
INTRODUCTION: Creating safer care is a high priority across healthcare systems. Despite this, most systems tend to focus on mitigating past harm, not creating proactive solutions. Managers and staff identify safety threats often with little input from patients and their caregivers during their health encounters. METHODS: This is a qualitative descriptive study utilizing focus groups and one-to-one interviews with patients and caregivers who were …
Building Evaluation Capacity for Integrated Care
Introduction: Evaluation has an important role to play in supporting integrated care. By collecting data early and often, care teams can better learn and adapt as new models of care are implemented. While the benefits of evaluation are well known, organizations may lack the capacity to conduct these well. This is particularly true of smaller organizations, where research is often seen as a luxury rather than a ‘must have.’ This paper presents les…
Using Integrative Thinking Techniques to Design Integrated care Programming in Ontario, Canada
Integrated Care connects care providers across sectors and often from different agencies or organizations to deliver more effective, efficient and client centered care. Creating new or redesigned programs to achieve these goals typically requires new care models delivered by a range of providers who have varying experiences and mental models about what is required for effective care. Effective care designs must also consider factors such as varia…

Implementing Community Based Primary Healthcare for Older Adults with Complex Needs in Quebec, Ontario and New-Zealand
The aim of this paper is to set the foundation for subsequent empirical studies of the "Implementing models of primary care for older adults with complex needs" project, by introducing and presenting a brief descriptive comparison of the nine case studies in Quebec, Ontario and New Zealand. Each case is described based on key dimensions of Rainbow model of Valentijn and al (2013) with a focus on "meso level" integration. Meso level integration is…
Keefe Smiling
Among the legendary thin volumes such as Ethics for Used-Car Dealers or Love Sonnets for Bureaucrats , one would invariably find a copy of The Wit and Humor of Political Science . There is an irony here and it is this: the very subject matter which is studied by political scientists—government and politics—has produced an enormous amount of humor, but those who study it rarely allow themselves the luxury of approaching the topic with levity or a …

Measuring speaker intent and awareness in language-discordant communication
When people share a language but differ in proficiency, higher proficiency speakers often adjust their speech for lower proficiency listeners. They might speak slower, simplify sentence structures, or use exaggerated articulation to support understanding and manage social dynamics. Speech accommodation across proficiencies (LX accommodation) can improve comprehension when it meets the needs of the lower proficiency speaker. However, it is not yet…
