With respect to your question about how to more efficiently share research, not only research but also innovations that take place in our various institutions, I believe that we must hold more forums at both the provincial and even the federal-provincial level so that front-line workers have an opportunity to share their experiences. There are many forums for academics because researchers are much more likely to believe in their importance.
I must say that nursing heads in various hospitals don't have many opportunities to exchange information amongst themselves about what is going on with patients in a hospital. I think that it is here, at the operational level, that we need to organize many more forums between the provinces, in order to discuss change.
I am not talking about researchers exchanging information amongst themselves. Researchers all have many opportunities to talk to one another, but the people working within the system have fewer opportunities. We know this, we organized a forum for teams; we work better in teams, etc. The people who attended the forum came from the workplace. They exchanged ideas amongst themselves. They came from all corners of the country, and it was appreciated because there are very few forums of this type.
