The SON sent a Verification of Course Enrollment (VCE) list of potential June graduates mid-January to the CNO and for October potential graduates by mid-June.

The CNO sends the student an application package. ��The student is to read all the information and follow the instructions provided to complete the application package:

The School of Nursing can only confirm your graduation eligibility status once the official grades have been recorded by the Registrar's Office and the Degree Audit Team evaluates the student's eligibility to graduate.

Remember, ��you must apply to graduate online:

The School of Nursing forwards Verification Course Completion (VCC) list of students to the CNO of students eligible to graduate in June by mid-May. ��The VCC list of students that are eligible to graduate in October is sent out towards the end of September.

Following this, the student is able to register for the ����油��.

Developed collaboratively with researchers (including��York nursing faculty, ��Gail Mitchell and Christine Jonas-Simpson), artists, persons with dementia, and their families - the play is an engaging way to share insights and examine the role we play in the lives of persons living with dementia.

Abstract ��

Chinese women with breast cancer report high levels of psychosocial distress and unmet psychosocial support needs. Yet they often cope with serious illnesses without seeking social support from their family or discussing concerns with their health care providers. This may be attributed to the Chinese cultural emphasis on self-reliance, self-sacrifice and saving face. Language barriers further inhibit uptake of health information and psychosocial services. Thus, very few Chinese immigrant women utilize mainstream psychosocial services because they do not match their cultural and linguistic needs.

To address this service gap, we will translate qualitative research findings into a culturally tailored online self-help program using an internet-based e-Counselling platform. The program will consist of two 5-minute docudrama videos and self-care educational materials delivering three key messages: 1) I realize I am not alone; 2) What I can do to help myself; and 3) It is possible to return to life post-treatment. The platform will provide interactive features to reinforce these messages facilitating recovery post-treatment. Usability testing of this program will be assessed in terms of navigation, presentation, content and satisfaction, using semi-structured, audio-taped interviews and observation by a trained staff with iterative cycles to refine the prototype. Purposeful sample of 10 Chinese-speaking women post-treatment will be recruited and asked to "think aloud" as they work through the program. Content analysis will be performed after each iterative cycle with categories and themes identified.

The results will inform the expansion of the platform to include other interactive features and content areas.
