My research interests focus on the personal and professional development of the health human resources workforce. As the complexity and interdependency of care provision advances, the importance of investing in continuous professional development of health professionals increases. My research recognizes that artificial divisions between "personal" and "professional" development are counterproductive to the goal of enhanced quality care. Failure to recognize these important development needs in the workforce leads to burnout, disengagement, and ultimately error. A particular focus of my research involves internationally educated health professionals, a large and growing component of our Canadian workforce who have particular needs for professional and personal development.
