The first part of the comprehensive study entitled “Improving St. Boniface and St. Vital Seniors’ Access to French-language Health Services,” provided an overview of the health status and service needs of seniors in these two neighborhoods. The second part, focused on identifying available French-language health services, listed 106 public, community, private forprofit and private not-for-profit and community organizations offering Frenchlanguage services in St. Boniface and St. Vital. The goals of this fourth part of the study are to: 1) identify bilingual human resources able to serve seniors in French within these organizations across the continuum of care and 2) better understand current practices and challenges in recruiting, hiring and retaining professionals who can offer French-language services. Specifically, we will attempt to determine the number and percentage of professionals who can offer French-language services, identify the nature of services offered by these bilingual professionals, identify current practices for recruiting and hiring bilingual staff and identify the challenges in matching the needs of seniors with bilingual human resources. This will provide us with an overview of current bilingual human resources and human resource practices in designated bilingual or Francophone facilities, long-term care facilities and home care providers in St. Boniface and St. Vital.
