Dr Carole Estabrooks to be inducted into the

International Nurse Researcher Hall of Fame

We'd like to congratulate Dr Carole Estabrooks for being selected as an inductee into the International Nurse Researcher Hall of Fame. She is being recognized for her lifetime achievements in and contributions to research and for mentoring future nurse researchers. She will be honoured at Sigma Theta Tau International’s Nursing Research Congress this summer in Melbourne, Australia. 

We have secured

Funding for VOICES Committee

We are extremely excited to announce that our citizen engagement committee has secured funding from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research's Patient-Oriented Research Collaboration Grant. This grant (ranked #1!) enables us to move forward on areas of collaboration identified by the committee as high priority. Planned activities in this grant include team training on citizen engagement and a priority setting exercise with VOICES members and our decision maker stakeholders. The grant enables TREC to remain committed to full partnership with all stakeholders and the successful integration of family caregivers, long term care residents, and persons living with dementia, into our larger research team.

TREC’s research is valuable in setting policy—applying data from our longitudinal platform study to analyze and modify a facility’s work environment, its staffing and services, staff’s use of best healthcare practices, and staff health and well-being. Examples include TREC projects on how and why care aides are rushed in their daily tasks, on burnout among staff, and on length of stay by residents. In addition, TREC’s System Projects are smaller “proof of concept” studies. Stakeholders and TREC researchers jointly identify a problem to analyze, and results often influence policy.

We welcomed our team at the 

TREC February Meetings

We met with our investigators, decision makers, citizen advisory committee members, trainees, and staff in Edmonton on February 22 and 23. We discussed the future of TREC including the new and exciting directions we are taking. We also talked about more fruitful ways of engaging our decision makers from the long term care sector and our citizen advisory committee members.
