Biography

Dr. Tamara Daly is a feminist political economist and health services researcher.  She is a Professor at York University, in the School of Health Policy and Management, and the graduate programmes in Health Policy and Equity; and Gender, Feminist and Women's Studies. 

She is the Director of the York University Centre for Aging Research and Education (YU-CARE),

Dr. Daly held a CIHR Research Chair in Gender Work and Health (2013 - 2018).

Dr. Daly is the Director of a 7 year SSHRC Partnership (2018-2025) for Age-Friendly Communities within Communities studying international promising practices for seniors, taking gender, language, culture, racialization, poverty, indigeneity and sexual orientation into account.  The team is conducting ethnographic and humanities research in 12 international cities.

Dr. Daly leads a SSHRC national survey of LTC workers, managers and families called What’s Past is Prologue: Comparing Long-term Care Workers and Working Conditions Between Canada and Nordic Countries 10 Years Later.

As a Stream II Mapping Care Relationships co-lead for the Seniors Adding Life to Years Grant led by Dr. Janice Keefe and funded by CIHR, Dr. Daly is focused on the relationships between good quality work and care, and good quality life and death in residential long-term care settings across Canada.

As an investigator on the Decent Work Good Care Research Team funded by the Australian Research Council, focused on comparisons between long-term care and home care work in Australia, New Zealand, Scotland and Ontario, Canada.

Dr. Daly was Principal Investigator on a recently completed CIHR PHSI grant entitled: "The Cardiovascular Health Awareness Program (CHAP) for the South Asian Community in York Region: Assessing volunteer participation and the gender and ethno-specific impacts".  The study was an intervention with South Asians focused on gender and volunteer roles. 

She is also a PI on a Team Grant "Canadian Chronic Disease Awareness and Management Program", heading up the GTA arm of the study.  Her focus is chronic disease and the Social determinants of health across GTA South Asian communities. 

She is currently a co-investigator and co-theme leader on a SSHRC funded Major Collaborative Research Initiative Re-imagining Long-term Care Residential Care; International Study of Promising Practices headed by Dr. Pat Armstrong, which includes an international team of experts studying promising practices in long-term residential care for older adults across 6 different countries.  The team has focused on LTC in Canada (Ontario, BC, Nova Scotia, Manitoba), United States (Texas), Norway, Sweden, Germany and the U.K.

Overall, her scholarship highlights promising public policy solutions for seniors using an equity framework.  Her research highlights gender and health access and outcomes; working, living and visiting conditions in long term residential care; and promising practices, principles and policies to improve access and health equity for older adults and for those who provide their care. 

She has authored a significant number of academic and plain language publications, is the recipient of teaching and research leadership awards, and actively supervises graduate students in research and publication.  As an expert in long-term care, Dr. Daly is frequently invited to speak at research and policy conferences.

Dr. Daly has worked for many years in the area of long-term care, and has contributed to public reports produced for policy-makers, the general public as wel as front-line health care workers:

1. Promising Practices in Long-term Care presents comparative LTC data on Canada, U.K. Norway, Sweden, Germany and the U.S. and highlights a series of promising practices through real stories we encountered during the course of our research.
2. Physical Environments for Long-term Care presents vignettes of how physical environment is handled across our studied jurisdictions.
3. Exercising Choice in Long-term Residential Care rin a series of short essays, reveals how resident and worker autonomy and control are handled differently across multiple jurisdictions.
4. Negotiating Tensions in Long-term Residential Care explores tensions that are challenging to resolve and that require on-going conversations.
5. Contradictions: Health Equity and Women’s Health Services in Toronto investigates changes to the organization and delivery of women’s health services in Toronto. 
6. “There are not enough hands”: Conditions in Ontario’s Long-term care Facilities reports on a survey of long-term care workers in Ontario.
7. “Out of control”: Violence against personal support workers in long term care reports findings from a comparative Canadian and Nordic survey.

A book is also available: “They Deserve Better: The Long-term Care Experience in Canada and the Nordic Countries”. 

As Principal Investigator, she has completed a CIHR funded research project entitled Invisible Women with Pat Armstrong and Karen Messing as Co-investigators.  This study explores the provision of informal care by paid companions, volunteers, family and students in long-term care facilities.
