Health Services Systems and Policy Research Seminar Series

2023-2024 Theme:
Advances in Aging Environments Research & Practice: What We Know & Don’t Know About the Influences of Psychosocial & Physical Work Environments on Workers and Their Work

Peggy Chi, a landscape architect and postdoctoral fellow at the Institute of Health Policy, Management and Evaluation at the University of Toronto is leading a transdisciplinary knowledge mobilization initiative relating to influences of built, naturalized, and psychosocial environments on both worker and resident outcomes in long-term care. Members are invited to the 2023/2024 Health Services Systems and Policy Seminar Series, entitled "Advances in Aging Environments Research & Practice."  Architects can benefit from these seminars to update their knowledge in long-term care as they continue to plan for redevelopments and new constructions of long-term care homes. For more information on the Fall Speaker Lineup, click here. Registration is required to receive zoom links.

These seminars will be held online via Zoom. Zoom links will be sent upon registration on EventBrite. This is an open seminar where everyone within the broad University of Toronto community, and within the networks of University of Toronto community members, are welcome to attend.
