Interprofessional education (IPE) is a growing focus for educators in health professional academic programs. Recommendations to successfully implement IPE are emerging in the literature, but there remains a dearth of evidence informing the bigger challenges of sustainability and scalability. Transformation to interprofessional education for collaborative person-centred practice (IECPCP) is complex and requires "harmonization of motivations" within and between academia, governments, healthcare delivery sectors, and consumers. The main lesson learned at the University of Manitoba was the value of using a formal implementation framework to guide its work. This framework identifies key factors that must be addressed at the micro, meso, and macro levels and emphasizes that interventions occurring only at any single level will likely not lead to sustainable change. This paper describes lessons learned when using the framework and offers recommendations to support other institutions in their efforts to enable the roll out and integration of IECPCP. ; L'éducation interprofessionnelle (EIP) fait l'objet d'un intérêt grandissant parmi les enseignants des programmes universitaires pour professionnels de la santé. Bien que des recommandations pour une mise en œuvre réussie de l'EIP fassent leur apparition dans les publications académiques, il existe encore un manque de données probantes sur les défis plus importants que représentent la durabilité et la modularité. La transformation de l'EIP vers une pratique interprofessionnelle et collaborative axée sur la personne (PPCAP) est complexe et nécessite l'«harmonisation des motivations» entre différents secteurs (universitaire, gouvernemental, des soins de la santé et de la consommation), et au sein de ceux-ci. La principale leçon qu'a reçue l'Université du Manitoba a été la nécessité d'employer une structure formelle de mise en place pour diriger ses travaux. Cette structure identifie les caractéristiques essentielles que l'on doit aborder à petite, moyenne et grande échelle et souligne l'importance de ces interventions à plusieurs niveaux, sans quoi le changement n'est pas durable. Cet article décrit les leçons apprises avec la structure et propose des recommandations afin d'aider d'autres institutions dans leurs efforts de création et d'intégration de la PPCAP.

Objectives Point of sale (POS) displays are one of the most important forms of tobacco marketing still permitted in many countries. Reliable methods for measuring exposure to such displays are needed in order to assess their potential impact, particularly on smoking attitudes and uptake among young people. In this study we use a novel method for evaluating POS exposure based on young people's use of retail outlets and recall of tobacco displays and observational data on the characteristics of displays. Study design Observational audit of retail outlets (n=96) and school-based pupil survey (n=1482) in four Scottish communities reflecting different levels of social deprivation and urbanisation, conducted in 2013 before legislation to remove POS displays was implemented in supermarkets. Methods Measures were taken of: visibility and placement of tobacco displays; internal and external advertising; display unit size, branding and design; visibility of pack warnings; proximity of tobacco products to products of potential interest to children and young people; pupils' self-reported frequency of visiting retail outlets; and pupils' recall of tobacco displays. Variation in POS exposure across social and demographic groups was assessed. Results Displays were highly visible within outlets and, in over half the stores, from the public footway outside. Tobacco products were displayed in close proximity to products of interest to children (e.g. confectionery, in 70% of stores). Eighty percent of pupils recalled seeing tobacco displays, with those from deprived areas more likely to recall displays in small shops. When confectioners, tobacconists and newsagents (CTNs) and grocery/convenience stores (two of the outlet types most often visited by young people) were examined separately, average tobacco display unit sizes were significantly larger in those outlets in more deprived areas. Conclusions POS displays remain a key vector in most countries for advertising tobacco products, and it is important to develop robust measures ...

Increasing recognition of healthcare disparities and unique health needs of LGBTQ2S peoples calls for a revitalization of health professional training programs. As new topics become integrated into these programs, there is a great need for a comprehensive resource that aligns with Canadian guidelines and standards of care. Caring for LGBTQ2S People identifies gaps in care and health care disparities, and provides clinicians with both the knowledge and the tools to continue to improve the health of LGBTQ2S people. Written by expert authors, many with lived experiences, this fully updated version builds on the critically praised first edition and highlights the significant social, medical, and legal progress that has occurred in Canada since 2003. The book includes general medical information, and guidance that is useful for anyone providing care to LGBTQ2S people. Chapters begin with the fundamentals of language, cultural competency, and the patient-provider relationship. This edition includes contemporary and expanded chapters on STIs, HIV, substance use, mental health, fertility, and trans health, and concludes with unique considerations for those who experience an intersection of diverse identities. Written for a general and trainee-level reader in health care and primary care, this clinical guide provides a comprehensive understanding of LGBTQ2S health
