Banshi Faldu, Temidayo Oluwasola Fayomi, Simran Ajani, and Lynda Chiamaka Ezeh are four graduating students in the Health Care Administration program who dedicated 28 weeks of their Capstone Research Project journey to investigating the growing trends in Social Prescribing in health care in Canada. Social prescribing bridges the gap between clinical and social care by referring patients to local, non-clinical services that are chosen according to the client’s interests, goals, and gifts. It allows doctors, nurse practitioners, and interprofessional health providers to formally refer patients through to community-based programs as an alternative approach to prescribing pharmaceutical medicine.

On any given workday in Canada, three people will die from a job-related fatality, life-altering injury or occupational disease. On April 28th of each year we pause, reflect and remember those workers who left home to go to their job and never returned home.  These individuals leave behind families, friends and co-workers devastated by this tragic loss. The Association for Workplace Tragedy Family Support, known as Threads of Life, is a Canadian registered charity dedicated to supporting families after a workplace fatality, life-altering injury, or occupational disease.
