If you haven’t already, make sure you subscribe to @medsky.social! It’s a Bluesky network and labeler for healthcare folks that adds little topic labels (like “Primary Care” and “Public Health”) under your name. You can DM them and they’ll help you get started!

So proud to contribute to the Canadian arm of the IAIC study on perceptions of aging and aging well with colleagues from @idea.nursing.ubc.ca. Great to see @nurselillian.bsky.social repping 🇨🇦 to share our results in Singapore.

Great week of learning and connecting at #CAG_2025 in Montréal with @nurselillian.bsky.social and the @idea.nursing.ubc.ca team. Presented posters on a seated dance pilot in LTC and a scoping review on social support for 2S/LGBTQ+ older adults in Canada :)

Great discussion (and pizza) at @agingsmart.bsky.social’s Lunch & Learn on #SocialPrescribing and social supports for older adults in rural Canada with Prof. Maureen Ashe.

As someone working closely with this research, I see these (very adorable) robots not as a replacement for human care, but rather as tools to complement and enhance human interaction :)

Just registered for the @jbiebhc.bsky.social Comprehensive #SystematicReview Training this October through @uvic.ca. Excited to strengthen my evidence synthesis skills as I dig deeper into #SocialPrescribing and #SeniorCare research to help build the evidence base!

I work in a large organization (UBC), so from time to time, people trying to reach another Jeffrey Wong accidentally email me. So far, I’ve been an OB/GYN and a tech manager… who knows how many more Jeffrey Wongs are out there lol

Wrapped up our #NWRS2025 presentation on LOVOT in LTC—honoured to share voices of older adults, people living with dementia, and their carers. Thank you to Arwen for being a wonderful co-presenter, @idea.nursing.ubc.ca for the support, and SFU Computing Science for hosting.

I’ll be presenting on the #LOVOT social robot with the UBC IDEA Lab (@idea.nursing.ubc.ca) team at the Northwest Robotics Symposium at SFU Harbour Centre later today—it’s a free to attend so come say hi if you’re around!

Me when there’s food @idea.nursing.ubc.ca 🤓 Thank you so much for the delicious meal @nurselillian.bsky.social 🫶🏼

Thomas presented our rapid review on the role of volunteers in diabetes self-management and social prescribing at #INCREASEBC today! Greatful to be a co-author on this work.

A series of unfortunate events led to a visit to my local @fraserhealth.ca Urgent & Primary Care Centre, then the ER over the weekend—followed by caring healthcare providers, friends, and colleagues who reminded me I wasn’t alone🥺

Attended part of the Hobiyee celebrations at Vancouver’s PNE Forum today. It was powerful to witness the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish) performing their celebration song—an expression of culture, resilience, and joy. Greatful for the chance to learn and celebrate alongside our Indigenous communities 😊

Hello Bluesky! Now that we’ve got some new friends around, allow me to reintroduce myself:

I’m Jeffrey—sociology student at TWU, research assistant at UBC IDEA Lab, and co-lead of @cspsc.ca. Also into hiking 🥾 and songwriting 🎶

Excited to connect here 🦋

Back in September, the @cspsc.ca team spoke at the @cisp-icps.bsky.social conference in Toronto.

Grateful to have been part of such a meaningful event that brought together scholars, practitioners, and champions of #SocialPrescribing!!!
