These integrated services are designed to improve individual functioning and provide culturally sensitive support and care in the community where possible." Continuing Care Facility refers to housing structure (and its associated services) that, when taken as a whole, could potentially be licensed by the Province of Alberta as a group home, a seniors lodge, a supportive living facility (levels I through IV), or a long-term care facility (nursing home or auxiliary hospital) Activities of Daily Living (ADL): The 6 categories of ADL as defined in FNIH's Home and Community Care Program are: (1) feeding, (2) continence, (3) transferring / mobilizing, (4) toileting, (5) dressing and (6) Bathing. Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL): The 8 categories of IADL, as defined in FNIH's Home and Community Care Program, are abilities to: (1) using the telephone, (2) grocery shopping, (3) preparing food, (4) housekeeping, (5) doing laundry, (6) using transportation, (7) handling medications, (8) handling finances Levels of Continuing Care Requirements are defined using Alberta Health and Wellness criteria. Please refer to Appendix A at the end of this survey for a full description table. Briefly, they are: Home Living: Clients can live at home with community support services. Residential Living (L1): Clients may need to live in facilities with personal care services. Lodge Living (L2): Clients may need to live in facilities with personal responses system and expanded personal care services.

FNIH: First Nations and Inuit Health Branch e-sdrt: FNIH Home Care tracking system used by community's Home and Community Care nurse to input monthly statistics regard Home and Community Care services provided to community members. Instructions of How To Best Answer the Survey Questions Answers to some of the survey questions may be found within your community's e-sdrt database. Please consult with your Home Care Nurse and review your community's e-sdrt data prior to answering this survey. Different health program staff in your community may be able to answer different questions in this survey. Some questions can only be answered by having several staff members share and discuss information. It is therefore recommended that the survey be answered in the format of a 'staff workshop' or 'staff meeting' where staff members from health program, social services and/or other First Nation department looking after continuing care services can review and answer the questions as a unit. It is likely that focus groups (either in-person or via tele- or video-conference) will be organized to allow communities to share ideas, concerns, and suggestions regarding the direction of First Nations Home and Community Care in Alberta. Answers provided by communities to this survey will serve as a starting point for these focus groups. Therefore, please ensure that your answers are as accurate and detailed as possible. Thoughtful explanations to your answers and suggestions will go a long way in helping us understand the continuing care needs of your community. We appreciate your time and effort in contributing to this program! Should you have any questions regarding the content of this survey, or need clarification on any of the questions, please feel free to contact: Dora Courteoreille at (dcourteoreille@gmail.com Lorene Weigelt at (Lorene_weigelt@hc-sc.gc.ca), or Justin Wong, our research consultant for this project, at (Justin@jtkreseach.com) Thank you in advance for your assistance!
