Overview
My program of research focuses on health care for acutely and chronically ill infants and children, in community and health care settings. My most recent research focuses on innovative strategies to improve family-centered care and enhance the partnership between families, communities and health care systems to ensure children receive optimal health care before, during and after hospitalization.
