Linkage with Saint Elizabeth Health Care

Saint Elizabeth Health Care is a founding HCERC donor and decision-maker partner to the CHSRF/CIHR Health Services Chair. One of the largest home health services delivery organizations in Canada, Saint Elizabeth is also an industry leader in innovation and technology utilization and is committed to research collaborations that inform health services delivery.

Saint Elizabeth’s relationship to the CHSRF/CIHR Chair was strengthened in 2002, when Dr. Wendy Young, a CHSRF Post-Doctoral Fellow and trainee of the Chair, joined Saint Elizabeth in a newly created position as Senior Researcher.

With Dr. Coyte’s mentorship, Dr. Young has spearheaded collaborative research and capacity building initiatives linking Saint Elizabeth, the York University Centre for Health Studies, and the CHSRF/CIHR Chair.

Her work has included a CIHR grant proposal for a New Emerging Health Services Research Team, which would use industry and CHSRF-linked resources to leverage federal funds in support of applied health services research and health services capacity advancement.

In January 2003, the Chair hosted a special presentation focused on the new models for research collaboration and knowledge sharing that have been developed as a result of the linkages between the Chair and Saint Elizabeth Health Care. A subsequent presentation was delivered in March 2003 at the CHSRF Annual Invitational Workshop in Montreal.
