    Abstract: To inform future strategy development in Canada and other jurisdictions, we undertook an Internet search to identify existing national and Canadian provincial dementia strategies and their major themes. Twenty-two dementia strategies were identified through an Internet search, supplemented by hand searches of reference lists of retrieved documents. Thematic analysis identified 17 strategic themes; common themes included improved diagnoses and assessments, increased access to care, and improved education of the healthcare workforce. This review reinforces the importance of a multi-faceted response to dementia and illustrates that, despite variation in needs across populations and geographies, there are many common priorities. The strategic themes identified in this review may provide a useful starting point for the development of new national strategies or, alternatively, as a check to determine if important priority areas have been missed in strategy development.

    Abstract: Nous présentons le développement d’une stratégie régionale en matière de démence au sud-ouest de l’Ontario (Canada). Des collaborations rassemblant des parties prenantes d’une autorité de santé régionale ont permis d’élaborer une stratégie en matière de démence. Des entretiens ont été menés avec des personnes atteintes de démence et leurs proches soignants ( n = 26), ainsi qu’avec des administrateurs de soins de santé et des décideurs politiques ( n = 33). Une enquête sur la définition des priorités a aussi été réalisée ( n = 64). Les deux groupes de participants ont identifié la compassion, le professionnalisme et les soins prodigués par les prestataires de soins aux premiers stades de la démence comme étant les points forts du système. Les deux groupes ont également souligné la nécessité d’une intégration et d’une coordination accrues, de soins davantage axés sur la personne, d’un soutien aux proches soignants et d’une plus grande souplesse dans la prestation et la réception des services. Les priorités les plus reconnues étaient les suivantes : améliorer le soutien aux proches soignants, l’accès aux soins et leur qualité à l’échelle du système. Ces forces, besoins et priorités ont été intégrés dans un cadre stratégique intitulé "Whole Person, Whole Journey". Les organisations œuvrant sur des stratégies en matière de démence pourront utiliser ce modèle comme tremplin pour leurs propres activités.

    Abstract: The objective of this study was to determine whether sibling sex and birth order have any influence on individuals' reported fear of crime levels. Based on literature relating to gender, socialization, vicarious fear for spouses and children, and sibling influence, three hypotheses were formed. It was expected that a) having siblings would be protective against fear, b) male fear of crime would increase with the number of younger sisters and c) female fear of crime would decrease with the number of older brothers. A total of 83 McMaster University undergraduate students completed a survey that included demographic questions and a fear of crime index. Results indicated the existence of a "big brother effect", whereby females with older brothers exhibited less fear of crime than other females. There was no statistically significant difference in fear of crime among those with and without siblings and no sex-specific sibling effects on fear of crime in males. Explanations of this result focused on female vulnerability, socialization and the particular influence of older brothers on their sisters' behaviour and characteristics. This study highlights the influence of siblings on fear of crime and provides impetus for future research

    Abstract: Persons with dementia are likely to require care from various health care providers in multiple care settings, necessitating navigation through an often-fragmented care system. This study aimed to create a better understanding of care transition experiences from the perspectives of persons living with dementia and their caregivers in Ontario, Canada, through the development of a theoretical framework. Methods Constructivist grounded theory guided the study. Seventeen individual caregiver interviews, and 12 dyad interviews including persons with dementia and their caregivers, were recorded and transcribed verbatim. The data were coded using NVivo 10 software; analysis occurred iteratively until saturation was reached. Results A theoretical framework outlining the context, processes, and influencing factors of care transitions was developed and refined. Gaining an in-depth understanding of the complex care transitions of individuals with dementia and their caregivers is an important step in improving the quality of care and life for this population. Conclusion The framework developed in this study provides a focal point for efforts to improve the health care transitions of persons living with dementia.
