| Popis: | Three research strategies for assessing the community health needs of the elderly population of an urban neighbourhood are described. Two primary research strategies, survey and ethnography, are contrasted with the types of health-related information available from the Census of Population and Housing. Different types of data emerged from each research strategy with census and survey data providing a global portrait of the community, and ethnographic data yielding more detail about the place of health in the lived experience of older residents. |
