Analysis for the Six Cs of Career Motivation Assessment

This project aims to help students develop deeper self-awareness of their career motivation patterns through interactive engagement with The Six Cs of Career Motivation Assessment while applying essential mathematical skills. Students will learn to leverage AI tools for personal development by creating a personalized Knowledge Bank and custom bot in BoodleBox that facilitates ongoing reflection and exploration of their assessment results. The primary goals include fostering critical self-reflection skills, developing proficiency with AI-assisted personal development tools, creating a sustainable framework for continuous career exploration, and strengthening mathematical competencies through practical application. Students will solve problems using proportions when analyzing assessment score relationships, perform computations with integers and fractions in scoring calculations, interpret measurements with various units when examining career-related data, and interpret basic descriptive statistics from their assessment results.

Community Safety and Well-Being Environmental Scan

The Community Safety and Well-Being Environmental Scan project aims to conduct a thorough analysis of the existing Community Safety and Well-Being Plan (CSWBP) action tables. These tables focus on critical areas such as housing and homelessness, poverty and income, mental health, substance use and addictions, and crime prevention. The primary goal is to map out current local initiatives, mandates, and key players within these focus areas. By identifying gaps, overlaps, and opportunities for enhanced collaboration, the project seeks to inform strategic planning and improve existing CSWBP initiatives. This project will provide students with the opportunity to apply their classroom knowledge to real-world social planning, gaining valuable experience in applied research and systems-level community work.

Enhancing Clinical Nursing Orientation at OSMH

Orillia Soldiers Memorial Hospital (OSMH) seeks to revamp its clinical nursing orientation program to better align with current nursing curriculum, best practice guidelines, and CNO standards. The goal is to create a tech-forward, engaging orientation experience that strengthens the onboarding process for new and returning nursing staff. This project aims to develop teaching tools that foster a supportive learning environment, encouraging professional growth and improving staff retention. By evaluating and refreshing existing materials, the project will ensure that the orientation process is inclusive, adaptive, and respects adult learning principles. The initiative will involve scoping and benchmarking with other hospitals to gather data and update the orientation curriculum, ultimately contributing to a more cohesive and forward-thinking nursing workforce.

Ambulatory Clinic IV Therapy, Chair Time Optimization

Purpose:   1. Understand potential for current RVH infusion medicine patients to receive treatment in community 2. Understand if there are revenue generating opportunities in infusion medicine used at other Ontario  hospitals   3. Understand if there are opportunities to optimize chair time in the infusion medicine clinic 4. Develop projections for staffing and chair time required to service the infusion medicine requests of RVH  credentialed providers  - The outpatient medicine treatment clinic and infusion medicine clinic continue to evolve to accommodate  the requests of RVH credentialed providers and the needs of patients for outpatient medical support.  - Waitlist for routine iron infusions reached 15+ weeks in December 2024 (most providers order routine iron  within 6-8 weeks)  - The incidence of iron deficient anemia continues to rise. Over the past year, the Maternal Child Program  has supported this need by providing 1:1 RN coverage in the outpatient clinic for prenatal infusions.  Initially, 6-8 OBS iron infusion were requested each month. In November 2024, 40 patients were  accommodated, followed by 49 visits in December 2024, including some “same-day requests.   - WHO states that 30% of women between the ages of 15-49yrs and 37% of pregnant women suffer from  iron deficiency anemia . Then there is more detail about 52% of women in developing countries require  iron infusions. Therefore, with 2045 births last year we should be providing iron infusions for 750 women,  potentially.  - Understanding the IVIG burden at RVH, and long-term strategies for managing highest volume of IVIG  requisitions in Ontario
