Analysis for the Six Cs of Career Motivation Assessment

This project aims to help students develop deeper self-awareness of their career motivation patterns through interactive engagement with The Six Cs of Career Motivation Assessment while applying essential mathematical skills. Students will learn to leverage AI tools for personal development by creating a personalized Knowledge Bank and custom bot in BoodleBox that facilitates ongoing reflection and exploration of their assessment results. The primary goals include fostering critical self-reflection skills, developing proficiency with AI-assisted personal development tools, creating a sustainable framework for continuous career exploration, and strengthening mathematical competencies through practical application. Students will solve problems using proportions when analyzing assessment score relationships, perform computations with integers and fractions in scoring calculations, interpret measurements with various units when examining career-related data, and interpret basic descriptive statistics from their assessment results.

Fresh Air, Better Care: Safe Implementation of Odor Control Devices in Acute Care

Hospital environments are highly sensitive to sensory factors, with odors having a notable impact on patient and staff experience. This project will explore how odor control strategies, compliant with Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) guidelines, can be effectively introduced into inpatient units at RVH. The student will work closely with hospital teams to research odor control technologies, engage in stakeholder discussions, and develop planning and educational materials. The project includes a literature review, equipment scan, and consultation with Environmental Services, IPAC, and Procurement. The student will assist in gathering vendor data, drafting initial guidelines, and producing educational content for staff. While not involved in procurement or decision-making, the student will contribute to laying the groundwork for future implementation.

Development of an Ethics Education Plan for Frontline Staff

Review RVH’s current Ethics framework, SharePoint Page, and available resources. Applying adult learning principles, develop an education plan and implementation schedule for frontline staff on Ethics at RVH.  Students would be expected to work towards the above outcomes and deliverables, reviewing ethics resources, adult learning principles and how to create an education plan an implementation schedule. This can be done remotely. 

Improving Patient Experience on Discharge

The Ontario Patient Experience Survey asks if patients received enough information on discharge, measuring if patients feel they were successfully set up for their transition out of the hospital. Currently RVH is scoring 64%, which is below it’s performance target of 70%. Review the provided data, and target one inpatient unit that requires the most improvement. Research evidence-based practices to improve discharge for patients and develop an implementation plan for rolling this out on the selected inpatient unit.
