Brief presentations of influential frameworks of person-centred care 

The purpose of this study is to explore and describe social determinants of health (SDOH) and quality of life (QOL) domains and indicators relevant for health and social services in Indigenous communities in Canada. We critically examine the experiences, priorities, and concerns of Indigenous peoples regarding their SDOH/QOL through: (a) a hermeneutic review of academic and grey literature, (b) an interpretive descriptive qualitative study among Indigenous knowledge keepers and service providers in Indigenous communities, and (c) a Delphi study to reach consensus among knowledge keepers and service providers on priority areas of SDOH/QOL from the integrated results of the literature reviews and qualitative study. Our analysis identifies a gap in knowledge about how to integrate and use SDOH/QOL measures in digital health systems, and emphasizes privileging Indigenous voices for the use of the data relevant to their community. A next phase of our research is to inform development of an SDOH/QOL measurement framework for integration into a person-centred, Nation-based, community driven, and culturally appropriate Indigenous digital health ecosystem for health and social services in Indigenous communities in Canada.

The Six Aims of Nursing Interactions, based on the theory of Modeling and Role-Modeling provides a theoretical framework that can help nurses practice from a holistic framework, while increasing their productivity, decreasing their stress, increasing their feelings of satisfaction and professional accomplishments; and most importantly increase their clients’ state of wellbeing. This presentation will offer nurses a framework that can be used with any population, in any setting. Through the creation of a safe, trusting, and sacred space, nurses engage with their clients to facilitate a sense of hope, control, affirmation, and empowerment to establish mutual goals that will initiate greater states of eudaemonistic health and wellbeing. Following the presentation, participants will be able to apply the major content presented into their practice, engaging and empowering their patients; essential to implementing Patient-centered care.
