Postdoctoral Fellowship Opportunity
Victoria Hospice and Island Health are seeking applicants for a Canadian Institutes of Health Research 'Health Impact System Fellow' at the postdoctoral level.
The overall impact goal for this funding-dependent joint fellowship is to improve care for patients who prefer to die at home, wherever home may be. We are interested in research that focuses on interdisciplinary community-based models of care and social innovations for frail seniors, and innovations that enhance value by addressing specific challenges for those who prefer to die at home, including but not restricted to:
• remote support for patients and caregivers;
• patient navigation;
• pain and symptom management in the home;
• psychosocial care in the home for patients and caregivers; and
• bereavement
For unionized job vacancies, please visit the Vancouver Island Health Authority's website.
Please note that Hospice DOES NOT use overseas recruiters. If you have been told you have been selected for a position and instructed to make a payment "in order to attend a mandatory visa/passport seminar", please know that this is a fraud and a scam. We suggest contacting your local police with details.
