CILIP Conference 2020: How can libraries deliver digital support for employab...CILIP
Angela Short, Digital Inclusion Officer, Stirling Council Libraries & Archives
With the full implementation of Universal Credit in Stirling in June 2017, Stirling Council Libraries identified a growing demand for digital employability support in libraries. To meet this increased need the Digital Inclusion Officer developed and delivered a programme to meet the digital demand. The result was Work I.T. sessions where people could attend their local library for help. The impact that libraries had on employability had not been measured previously therefore we captured the effect these sessions had on participants, their confidence, digital skills and employability through action based research. The results were published in early 2019 and the Work I.T. programme continues.

Improvement Story session at the 2013 Saskatchewan Health Care Quality Summit. For more information about the summit, visit www.qualitysummit.ca. Follow @QualitySummit on Twitter.
Population and Public Health Branch of Saskatoon Health Region deployed improvement methods to develop a comprehensive strategy to improve outcomes for small children ages 0 to 5. The Early Years Health and Development Strategy (EYHDS) team comprised of 5 front line staff and an improvement consultant worked intensively over three months (Feb, Mar, and April, 2012) to Define, Measure and Analyze the opportunity for improvement and generated 25 recommendations. The result was a set of related recommendations for health planners, governments and community organizations. The presentation will demonstrate how improvement methods can be used effectively in community based health promotion areas of health care.

Patient entrepeneurs, pop up uni, 9am, 3 september 2015NHS England
Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

Dementia caregiving as a public health priority: how iGeriCare.ca can help?
The Public Health Agency of Canada's National Dementia Strategy identifies that caregivers face significant physical, mental, and financial impacts as a result of caring for a person living with dementia. Caregivers experience high levels of stress and are at a higher risk of injury and depression. As an essential part of the care team, supports must be provided to improve the quality of life for both the person living with dementia and the caregiver as well. The need for evidence-based caregiver education has been identified by national and provincial dementia strategies and the Health Quality Ontario Standard for dementia.
iGeriCare was developed by experts in geriatrics, mental health, and e-learning at McMaster University to provide evidence-based dementia education for informal family caregivers of persons living with dementia. The free, open-access web-based program allows caregivers to access resources from their own homes, at their own pace with the ability to easily share the experience with other family members and caregivers. iGeriCare's features include ten multi-media lessons, curated resources, and is host to live, online events where viewers can interact directly with experts in dementia and geriatrics. Since July 2018, over 90,000 visitors have come to the site to experience the lessons, live events, and explore the resources.
Join Drs. Anthony Levinson and Richard Sztramko as they discuss why dementia, caregiver wellness, and brain health are important public health issues. Learn about the evidence regarding the effectiveness of web-based caregiver education. Explore iGeriCare's features and hear about how the program was designed, developed, and implemented and the results of the qualitative research performed to date.
