 The postdoctoral fellowships of the first two authors were supported by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, CapitalCare Foundation (AMB), the Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical Research, and the Faculty of Nursing at the University of Alberta. The last author holds a Canada Research Chair funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Faculty of Nursing, University of Alberta. The sponsors had no role in any aspect of the study, including data collection and analysis, manuscript preparation, or authorization for publication.

 Some preliminary findings were presented during workshops at the Annual Meeting of National Initiative for the Care of the Elderly in Toronto, in May 2009. We are grateful for the comments and questions of the participants in our workshops. In June 2010 some of the findings were presented as a poster at the Knowledge Utilization Colloquium 2010 in Halifax, Canada. We also appreciate the insightful comments offered by our colleague Sandy Cobban on an earlier draft of the manuscript.
