Programme de bourses d'impact sur le système de santé : outil d'établissement de liens pour les organismes partenaires
Aperçu
Le Programme de bourses d'impact sur le système de santé (BISS) offre à des stagiaires au doctorat, à des boursiers postdoctoraux et désormais à des chercheurs en début de carrière hautement qualifiés qui mènent des travaux de recherche sur les services et les politiques de santé ou dans un domaine connexe une occasion de mettre en place des projets ou des programmes de recherche intégrés qui visent à apporter des solutions aux défis majeurs qu'affrontent les organismes du système de santé et à appuyer le recours à des processus décisionnels fondés sur des données probantes.
L'outil d'établissement de liens, présenté ci-dessous, vise à faciliter la collaboration entre les candidats et les organismes ayant exprimé l'intérêt d'accueillir des stagiaires au doctorat, des chercheurs postdoctoraux ou des chercheurs en début de carrière. L'outil affiche dans un tableau un court profil des organismes du système de santé qui ont exprimé leur souhait d'établir un partenariat, et les priorités de chacun. Les candidats sont invités à consulter ces profils et à soumettre une déclaration d'intérêt aux organismes.
L'utilisation de cet outil n'est pas obligatoire. Les candidats peuvent profiter d'une occasion auprès d'organismes dont le profil ne figure pas dans le tableau, mais ces organismes doivent correspondre à la définition « d'organisme du système de santé ou d'organisme connexe » fournie dans les possibilités de financement.
L'information est donnée sur une base volontaire et ne procure aucun avantage particulier dans l'évaluation et le financement des demandes.
Représentez-vous un organisme du système de santé qui souhaite accueillir un stagiaire, un boursier ou un CDC? Remplissez le formulaire en ligne de notre outil d'établissement de liens. Les profils seront publiés dès le lancement du concours et le tableau des profils sera mis à jour régulièrement par la suite jusqu'à la date limite de présentation des demandes.
Instructions à l'intention des candidats
- Première étape : Évaluation des organismes partenaires potentiels et présentation des déclarations d'intérêt : Les candidats intéressés sont encouragés à consulter le profil des organismes partenaires et à soumettre une déclaration d'intérêt aux organismes de leur choix. Ils peuvent soumettre plusieurs déclarations d'intérêt, mais ils devront ensuite choisir un organisme partenaire et soumettre une demande aux IRSC visant cet organisme. Conseil : Mieux vaut vous y prendre tôt. N'attendez pas à la dernière minute. Il faut du temps pour établir un solide partenariat et préparer une demande conjointe à soumettre aux IRSC. Les organismes partenaires acceptent des déclarations d'intérêt et retiennent des candidats tout au long de l'année, alors n'attendez pas.
- Deuxième étape : Exigences concernant les déclarations d'intérêt : Les déclarations d'intérêt doivent être envoyées par courriel (voir les coordonnées dans le profil de l'organisme partenaire) et comprendre, en plus d'une introduction générale et d'un énoncé des objectifs, le curriculum vitæ du candidat (professionnel, et non le CV commun). Les organismes l'utiliseront pour procéder à une première évaluation. Ils pourront demander d'autres renseignements aux candidats. Conseil : Adaptez votre déclaration d'intérêt en fonction de l'organisme. Expliquez clairement la raison de votre intérêt pour un organisme en particulier et ce que vous pensez pouvoir lui apporter pour l'aider à atteindre ses objectifs en matière d'impact.
- Troisième étape : Rencontre avec les organismes : Les organismes répondront à toutes les déclarations d'intérêt et inviteront les candidats potentiels à une ou à plusieurs rencontres pour discuter de leurs intérêts et de leurs idées et déterminer leur compatibilité (par téléphone, en ligne ou en personne). Les organismes procèderont à une évaluation à l'interne et à la sélection. Les candidats peuvent aussi rencontrer plusieurs organismes et faire leur propre évaluation pour choisir celui qui correspond le mieux à leurs intérêts et à leurs objectifs de carrière.
- Quatrième étape : Confirmation du partenariat et préparation de la demande : Si un candidat et un organisme sont compatibles, le partenariat sera confirmé officiellement par courriel. Le candidat et l'organisme partenaire prépareront alors ensemble la demande à soumettre aux IRSC. Conseil : Revoyez les critères d'évaluation et la section « Présentation d'une demande » de la possibilité de financement. Cette dernière est la source officielle pour tout renseignement sur la demande et les exigences qui y ont trait.

|
Post-doctoral or Early Career Researcher |
Canadian Institute for Health Information |
Leverage CIHI's broad range of health data, indicators, standards and methods, tools towards an innovative analysis that would help support CIHI goals. This opportunity is with CIHI's Population and Indigenous Health Branch that leads the development of standards for socio-demographic data including race-based data and Indigenous identity data, in close partnership with stakeholders, health sector leaders, and Indigenous organizations and communities. |
Health Equity is a information priority identified in CIHI's 2022-27 strategic plan. Health equity and equitable care are overarching goals for P/T health systems. Presently, health systems are identifying priority populations and relevant data needs to support equity measurement. P/T stakeholders have expressed interest in best practice guidance on performance indicators that are relevant for reporting and monitoring. CIHI is well-positioned to establish a repository of quality/performance indicators that allow: (1) reliable and valid comparisons among population subgroups, and (2) measuring whether health care systems are providing high quality care for all. We anticipate a growing need for guidance on health care indicators that are amenable to intervention and eliminating gaps in care quality across priority populations. |
The US National Quality Forum (NQF) has developed a criterion and scoring system to determine whether a quality indicator qualifies as an ‘equity sensitive indicator'. NQF applied this approach to their 500+ indicators to prioritize a suite of equity sensitive indicators for reporting and quality improvement. This work proposes to adapt the NQF criteria to a Canadian context and to apply the modified criteria to relevant CIHI indicators. This work will involve assessing CIHI indicators through literature-searching to identify peer-reviewed literature demonstrating gaps in quality of care for priority populations related to higher prevalence conditions for indicators that meet standard protocols or clinical guidelines. |

19 To Zero |
19 to Zero is a not-for-profit coalition of academics, public health experts, behavioural economists, and creative professionals working to understand, engage with, and ultimately shift public perceptions towards healthier behaviours. 19 to Zero originally launched with a focus on encouraging safer public health behaviours during the COVID-19 pandemic. Since then, the not-for-profit is working on care deficit issues, including recovering routine immunization uptake, cancer screening and other chronic disease management, mental health issues, etc. We work extensively with health systems partners ranging from political (cabinet), bureaucratic (ADM/DMs), health systems (e.g., AHS, Women's College Hospital), other NGOs, etc. |
|
19 To Zero uses a multimodal approach to address behaviour change, which typically includes: identifying the need/ issue through partner engagement, developing a strategy to promote positive behaviour change, stakeholder consultation and engagement, primary and secondary research to identify needs and interventions, execution of project plan, policy briefings to inform the government and attain resources, and overall impact evaluation. The specific work a Fellow would do would depend a lot on their interest but ultimately we would like to enable and support them to oversee all of the processes above for a specific issue such as those listed in the priority areas section. |
