Graduate Student Placement - Office of Spread and Scale. Deadline: Nov 27, 2020
Women’s College Hospital
This position is hosted by the Office of Spread and Scale (OSS), which was recently established at Women’s College Hospital (WCH). One of the largest barriers in the uptake of effective interventions is a lack of support for teams with effective interventions who want to connect to health system stakeholders in order to impact policy. The Office of Spread and Scale (OSS) aims to address these gaps by 1) supporting teams with effective interventions to expand to new settings and populations; and 2) partnering with policy-makers to identify enablers that would support the adoption of innovative interventions.
This temporary position will give a graduate student the opportunity to work with an innovative team that is leading cutting-edge work focusing on supporting the spread and scale of new models of care. This role will be an opportunity for the student to apply their skills in implementation science, health services research, and literature reviews, while supporting the development of this new initiative. The skills/training required for spread and scale work are unique, and the student to be trained by implementation scientists and health services researchers who are well versed in this emerging space.
Application Closing Date: November 27, 2020 Anticipated Start Date: January 4, 2021
Duration: Flexible. Ideally 16-weeks full-time, however part-time arrangements can be made.
To qualify for this position, you must be a current graduate student living in Canada. The position is virtual, so no relocation is required. This position can be full or part-time. The start date is flexible, however a January start is preferred. This is a paid position.
