    The central hub of downtown Toronto, Yonge-Dundas is a public square situated at the south-east corner of the intersection of Yonge Street and Dundas Street East across from the Toronto Eaton Centre. The site is bordered on the north by Dundas Street, on the east by Victoria Street, on the west by Yonge Street, and on the south by a former street named Dundas Square. In 1998, as part of the Yonge Street Regeneration Project, Toronto City Council approved the expropriation and demolition of the buildings on the site known today as Yonge-Dundas Square. Construction took five years from 1998 to 2002. Designed by Brown + Storey Architects, the square was intended as a new public space in Toronto.…

    When you apply Porter’s Five Forces model to the healthcare niche industry for the developmentally delayed and analyze for competitive advantage, the competition is currently not as strong among existing organizations due to a smaller concentration of group homes and adult respite care facilities. Due to the limited competition, residents do not move from one group home to another very often so family or the placement agency will consider all factors such as pricing, employee qualifications, service quality, and the quality of care that patients receive by the staff (Lester & Parnell, 2006). The threat of new entrants into the market is high as it is thought that the industry will grow as more people gain access to medical insurance (Residential Intellectual Disability Facilities in the US: Market Research Report, n.d.). This threat can sometimes come in the form of other group home that are privately owned and operated by multinational corporations that are lured to the United States by the ever expanding health care industry and group homes could be part of a diverse portfolio of healthcare services (Lethbridge, 2011). Other threats could come…

    I visited Downtown Yonge on Friday, November 6th, 2015 approximately between 4:00PM – 6:00PM. During my visit, I noticed the area was heavily congested on the sidewalks and arterial roads. The flow of traffic was constantly steady along Yonge Street towards Grenville and Grosvenor Street, given it was rush hour. Sequentially, the traffic had significantly increased in the opposite direction towards Richmond Street. As commuters leave the downtown core, it is assumed they were going towards Union station or the highway acting as paths to head home in the inner and outer suburbs.…

    The relationship between quality and competition is theoretically ambiguous in nursing home settings where prices are set by Medicare and Medicaid (Grabowski, Towns, Grabowski, & Town, 2011). However, if prices could be administratively set and greater than marginal cost, greater competition would increase the quality of healthcare (Grabowski, Towns, Grabowski, & Town, 2011). Medicare and Medicaid set the market prices for skilled and long-term care services for semi-private and private beds, price is set at one hundred and sixty-eight dollars a day for skilled care services and one hundred and ninety-nine dollars a day for long-term care services. The demand would be a straight line on the graph with the marginal revenue or price being one…

    I think the neighborhood approach is practical depending on where one lives and the relationships an elderly person has with the neighbors around them. The closer someone is, relationships-wise, to their neighbor, the more inclined the neighbor will be on checking on the elderly neighbor. For example, when my grandma was still alive, her next-door neighbors, who she knew for many years, looked out for her and would do kind gestures such as rotate which neighbor mowed her lawn as they knew she lived alone and did not have the energy to do those physically demanding tasks anymore. My family and grandmother were very appreciative of those neighbors because they took time out of their days to do something for someone who wanted to age in her home but needed additional help taking care of the yard. As I mentioned before that the location of where someone lives could impact if neighbors are willing to help, I feel that where my family and I live, a house with a driveway off a decently busy road, the practical help from neighbors would not work as well as it did for my grandma who lived in a small neighborhood.…

    Introduction A growing evidence base within gerontology suggests that the quality and attributes of the social and built environments in which older adults live have profound impacts on their health, quality of life and wellbeing (Menec, Means, Keating, Parkhurst & Eales, 2011). Furthermore, widespread population aging across the globe has placed a greater emphasis the need for initiatives that enable older adults to live active, social and independent lives (Chappel, McDonald & Stones, 2003). As a result, many researchers, health stakeholders and policy makers are calling for an increased focus on the integration of age-friendly neighbourhood design into the planning of communities (Emlet & Moceri, 2011; Sharlach & Lehning, 2013). The World…

    Introduction Oftentimes, it becomes a question if plants, trees, and green elements are important in a city’s design, especially that of its downtown. After studying the downtown of Halifax, NS, particularly that of Granville and Hollis Street, it is clear that the amount of green space does affect how people use the street. The robotic actions of people both walking and driving are because of the amount of plants, trees, and green elements present in the downtown. Background Halifax, Nova Scotia has been a city of development, especially in the downtown area which encompasses Hollis and Granville Street. In the 1950’s Halifax was no exception to the “decay [that] takes place most rapidly on the fringe of the centre” (Grant & Gregory, 2015).…
