The purpose of the 成人VR视频 Training and Retention of Health Professionals Project is to ensure that English-speaking people can communicate in their own language with the professionals serving their needs within Quebec鈥檚 health and social services system.
A sum of $19M, funded through the Official Languages Health Contribution Program, has been allocated over a four-year period from April 01, 2009 to March 31, 2013, the first fiscal year 2008-2009 having been considered an extension of the previous Contribution Program. The annual breakdown of the $19M budget for 2009-2013 is as follows:
2009-2010 - $4.5 M
2010-2011 - $4.7 M
2011-2012 - $4.8 M
2012-2013 - $5 M

The Project pursues this objective with three measures听:
- Measure 1 - language training for French and English-speaking health and social services personnel;
- Measure 2 - retention and distance professional and community support to increase the number of English-speaking personnel and the range of services to communities;
- Measure 3 - a research program to identify language barriers to services and best practices to reduce or eliminate these barriers.
The following documents provide access to results of activities carried out within each of the three measures over the period of 2009-2013.

Measure 3 - Research Development Program - Overall Profile 2009-2013
Program summary
The 成人VR视频 Training and Retention of Health Professionals Project includes a research component to help听achieve its overall mission of rendering health care services more accessible to English-speaking Quebecers for whom potential language barriers exist. Through its Research Development Program the project promotes research projects that identify barriers to health care access or that investigate potential means to overcome identified barriers. The program enables us to expand the project鈥檚 strategies and best practices to address the health concerns of minority language communities in Quebec. The objectives of the Research Development Program are to:
- Understand the ways in which access to health care by linguistic minorities may be limited by linguistic, social and cultural barriers.
- Identify and develop strategies through which identified barriers may be overcome or reduced.
- Increase dissemination and adoption of knowledge, strategies or best practices which can address the health concerns of minority language communities.
- Expand this emerging field of study by funding existing or new research projects.
