Preparing for Climate Change at Health Care Facilities: Extreme Heat

Climate change has led to an increased frequency and intensity of extreme heat and heatwaves. Prolonged periods of extreme heat impose cumulative stress on the human body, heightening the risk of heat-related illnesses and fatalities. This elevated health risk places additional demands on healthcare systems to treat affected individuals. Additionally, healthcare facilities face challenges in ensuring the safety of both patients and staff during such conditions, necessitating enhanced measures to manage indoor temperatures and mitigate heat exposure. Join the Canadian Coalition for Green Health Care, PEACH Health Ontario and CASCADES as we welcome, Dr. Myles Sergeant to discuss heat impacts on health, Dr. Anna Gunz to discuss how we can prepare for heat in clinics and expert Ron Drummond to share preventative maintenance opportunities to reduce heat impacts in health care facilities.

Community Attitudes on Using Health Data in Research in Canada & Australia

Date and time: Tuesday, June 18 · 12 – 2pm EDT

Is this okay? Community attitudes on using health data in research in Canada and Australia: A cross-cultural exchange

The access and use of health data for research raises concerns related to privacy, commercial motives, equity and fairness for members of the public who want to know who is using data generated from their personal information and why. But despite concerns, there are clear benefits to using health data in research, including better patient care, better health system planning, and better understanding of disease and wellness.

In this two-hour, interactive workshop co-hosted by HDRN Canada and PHRN Australia, Julia Burt and Dr. Annette Braunack-Mayer will discuss how public engagement and dialogue can help us understand community attitudes about the use of health data in research. They will explore why members of the public support the use of health data in research and under what conditions, as well as reservations or concerns that arise. Julia and Annette will compare engagement methods from their respective research projects on community attitudes related to the use of health data in research, and share findings from Canada and Australia.

During the workshop, participants will be invited to share their thoughts on the use of health data for research through an interactive whiteboard and facilitated discussion. Participants will also be invited to view and contribute to comments from an identical workshop hosted in Australia on June 3.

Ideas generated will inform a joint paper by HDRN Canada and PHRN Australia.

Dr. Braunack-Mayer has expertise in the use of deliberative methods to address contentious ethical and policy issues in health and social care. In recent years, her research has focused on social and ethical issues in big data and artificial intelligence, and on the delivery of culturally safe health and social services for older Aboriginal peoples. She also chairs two Human Research Ethics Committees and the Lumos Data Governance Committee, which supports a large program of work for the New South Wales government collecting and using general practice data.
