I think it would be a good idea as well, however I am not able to make it to
TO on that date.
Please do keep me in the loop. I read most of the POWER study and it eludes
to some interesting research and information.
Thanks,
Marlene

Subject: Achieving Health Equity in Ontario: POWER Study Release
The POWER Study’s final chapter is now available for download!
Conclusions
Achieving Health Equity in Ontario: Opportunities for Intervention and
Improvement (chapter 13)
TheProject for an Ontario Women’s Health Evidence-Based Report
(POWER) Study has produced a comprehensive provincial women’s health
report. Weexamined an extensive set of evidence-based indicators
bridging population health and health system performance.The Women's
Health Equity Report provides actionable data for policy makers,
providers, and consumers in their efforts to improve health and reduce
health inequities in Ontario.POWER has examined gender differences in
access to care, as well as quality and outcomes of care for the
leading
causes of morbidity and mortality in the provinceand how they differ
bygender, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, and geography.
We conclude the POWER Study with Chapter 13 ‘Achieving Health Equity
in Ontario: Opportunities for Intervention and
Improvement.’Important
patterns emerged as we reviewed the findings across all of the POWER
chapters. This final chapter describes these patterns and uses
evidence
from the POWER Study to identify opportunities to improve health
equity
in Ontario. A summary of the key findings from each of the POWER
reports
are also presented. The POWER Study’s proposedLeading Set of Health
Equity Indicators are presented and key opportunities for improving
data
capacity in the province are outlined. Finally, we provide thePOWER
Health Equity Road Map, a ten-step plan to support efforts to achieve
health equity in the province. This road map emerged from the themes
identified across the POWER Study chapters and from broad community
consultation and dialogue. The time to move forward is now. What is
needed is the will and commitment.
