Contribute to Caregiver-Focused Research

The Ontario Caregiver Organization is frequently asked to connect researchers and other stakeholder organizations with caregivers. Where appropriate, we will share these invitations and connect interested members with relevant parties.

In the past, we have supported focus groups with the Ontario Ombudsman office, research initiatives with various academic institutions and research to practice initiatives with various health care providers. We will continue to share these opportunities and thank caregivers who have engaged and contributed in this way.

There are external opportunity for caregivers in French only. For these opportunities, please visit Perspectives Aidance Naturelle in French: https://www.perspectivesaidancenaturelle.ca/occasions-externes

Living with a Life-limiting Illness: Access to Care and Related Experiences (LLLI-ACRE)
Living with a Life-limiting Illness: Access to Care and Related Experiences (LLLI-ACRE) is a new national study that aims to better understand the experiences with care for individuals with life-limiting illnesses and their unpaid caregivers, as well as access to care and support services.
The study will provide information on:

experiences and satisfaction with the care received to meet their physical, psychological, social and spiritual needs;

gaps and barriers in care.

The results will help health care organizations and providers improve the development, planning and delivery of high-quality care for those living with a life-limiting illness and their caregivers in Canada.

Exploring the Role of OHTs in the Care of Individuals living with Dementia and Their Caregivers through a Modified Broker Dialouge

Researchers at Mount Sinai in Toronto are seeking to interview community-dwelling people living with dementia and caregivers, across Ontario.
This study aims to understand how dementia care is being incorporated into Ontario Health Teams (OHTs), which are groups of healthcare providers working together to improve patient care. By listening to the thoughts and experiences of different people involved in dementia care, such as healthcare workers, caregivers, and patients, we hope to identify what is working well and what needs to be improved. Ultimately, we want to find ways to make dementia care within OHTs better, so that individuals living with dementia can receive the support they need to live well.
If this is of interest to you, please contact Chelsey at ChelseyDas.Neves@sinaihealth.ca
