We have been working with Compassionate Ottawa for our community nursing placement. They offer grief and bereavement workshops to members of the community to help them understand the concept of grief, the grieving process, and how to interact with those who are grieving. We have helped them develop a survey that will be sent to participants after 3 months to evaluate the content of the workshop and how participants feel related to their knowledge and comfort surrounding the topic and grief.

The primary aim of this comprehensive report was to conduct a thorough evaluation of the Transitional Emergency Shelter Program/ Targeted Engagement & Diversion (TESP/ TED) initiative at Shepherds of Good Hope (SGH). This involved the development of detailed questionnaires and conducting extensive interviews with a diverse range of stakeholders, including service users, SGH and Inner City staff, as well as representatives from the Ottawa Police Service and the Ottawa Paramedic Service. The overarching goal was to evoke personal experiences and perspectives related to their interactions with the TESP/ TED programs. By delving into these individual narratives, the study sought not only to gain insights, but also to identify the strengths of the programs and pinpoint areas for potential growth and improvement. Through the collection of subjective data, both positive and negative, students are primarily hoping to gain feedback and uncover areas of future research within this organization.

Packages of different weight are picked by robotic arm to the load cell. At this point load cell calculate the weight of the package and divide to the pallets according to the weight. Fragile items are separated to a different pallet.
In response to growing cybersecurity risks and demand for remote work, OneBastion offers organizations an affordable authentication system for cloud-based workloads. The target users include NGOs like the Children’s Aid Society of Algoma. Commercial products specializing in cloud-based authentication sometimes are too costly for institutions and small businesses with limited budgets. OneBastion is explicitly designed to help such organizations to manage their cybersecurity risks. It only allows authenticated users to access sensitive applications such as Microsoft 365 (Outlook, OneDrive and more) and the cloud-based applications owned by the organizations. It significantly reduces the attack surface because intruders cannot log in to sensitive corporate applications without first authenticating to the secure bastion host.
Our project is a static website build on Jekyll for Algonquin’s cloud development program. Which we have not only current but future and past students as well to have better understanding of courses provided, the material and extra knowledge which will be provided by website’s in build blog system and last but not least it will help students to connect with their professor more easily.

Our project presents a cost-effective Security Operations Center (SOC) solution using WAZUH SIEM. With zero budget, we demonstrated real-world threat detection for Children’s Aid Society of Algoma.
Physician training programs must include not only clinical experiences but also a comprehensive academic curriculum that fulfills the requirements of the specialty regulatory bodies. Currently, across the Canada and internationally, most physician training programs work independently to provide academic curriculum to their learners. While the COVID19 pandemic opened the door for unique virtual learning opportunities and occasional collaboration between nearby centres, educational leaders still struggle with the coordination of content delivery, expert recruitment, and duplication of work. This project is intended to provide an on-line cloud-based community where training program leaders can engage with leading clinical experts and researchers across Canada to develop and deliver comprehensive academic programming. This platform will make it easy for educational leaders to connect with key experts across the country, schedule presentations or access pre-recorded sessions. In addition, this platform will allow learners to access up-to-date and on-demand presentations, evaluate the sessions and connect with a wide variety of expert clinicians across the country, providing opportunities for mentor ship.
