This includes room and board, as well as the care provided by the caregiver.

Safety
Home care providers and clients face a variety of safety threats in their work. These risks include a lack of training, insufficient knowledge about the client’s health status and environment, and the risk of infection from dirty equipment. In addition, paid providers must also contend with safety threats in their own homes, such as insect infestations or unsanitary conditions. This can result in serious injury or death for the clients and caregivers.
Addressing these issues requires a major rethink of underlying institutionally oriented assumptions and guiding frameworks. To develop a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and barriers to safe practice in home care, researchers have undertaken several interrelated pan-Canadian initiatives. These initiatives have included a literature review, interviews with key informants and an invitational roundtable. Digital recordings of these interviews and photo walkabouts were transcribed verbatim and uploaded into NVivo 8 for analysis. Two researchers independently coded each transcript and compared the data to identify patterns and relationships.
Security
Informed by the socio-ecological framework, all three research streams will examine a range of factors influencing client pathways through home care. Data linkage and analyses undertaken in MB (WRHA) and NS (NSHA) will establish similarities and differences in client pathways across the sites, including how clients’ circumstances are shaped by meso and macro factors. Policy document analysis (including strategic documentation and websites) and key informant interviews in both jurisdictions will contextualize this analysis. The comparative case study design will allow for the comparison of home care systems in NS, which is structured by health authority agencies, and MB, which is structured as five public providers operating under the guidance of a provincial government.
