This was a big meeting. All of our Discovery recruitment materials are ready to be distributed and we are planning to begin our Discovery interviews and sessions within the next few weeks.

At this meeting, we prepared for Discovery by sharing tips and strategies for leading successful interviews/focus groups and keeping discussions positive and appreciative. We decided to skip our May meeting since we are all busy with Discovery, and we will meet back in June to debrief.

Zara, our current Knowledge Translation Specialist, was recently hired and attended our meeting this month. Welcome, Zara!

We began revising our Discovery questions to make them more accessible and relevant to our group. We recognised that the ‘circle of care’ for community clients may be broader, including friends, neighbours, relatives and so forth, and that relationships are very important at all levels – in the community, in long-term care homes, and in families.

Today, our CCC welcomed even more new members – a representative from the Alzheimer Society of Huron County and several Saint Elizabeth personal support workers. Consistent attendance at our meetings is still a challenge, so we discussed ways to include the perspectives of all members, particularly those unable to attend meetings.
