Introduction

Dean of Health Studies Dr. W. Dean Care

This Annual Research and Scholarship in Health Studies Report (2015-16) represents a culmination of efforts over the past eight years. In 2008, we were a School of Health Studies with little in the way of research and scholarship outcomes.

The following building blocks were put into place as a foundation for research and scholarly activities.


This report is tangible evidence that the building blocks put into place have been successful in increasing the research and scholarship productivity in the Faculty of Health Studies.

My appreciation is extended to Donna Epp, Research Facilitator in Health Studies for her efforts over the past two years in facilitating and supporting the ongoing evolution and development of the Health Studies Research Unit.

Proudly yours, Dr. W. Dean Care RN Dean & Professor Faculty of Health Studies
