Development of my research question:
In the first
class it was:

assisted living facilities in southern Alberta?
·
What is the Prevalence of staff abuse by
residents in assisted living facilities?
Then:
·

stress and burnout among health care workers in assisted living facilities in

After discussion
with Kyle and Tina, they advise me to change my question to:
·

healthcare aides working in assisted living facilities in Southern Alberta?
With my
supervisor meeting we discuss too much about my question, then I came up with
this questions:
·

aides working in assisted living facilities in Lethbridge, Alberta?
·
What are the main stressors experienced by healthcare aides?
And
now:
1.

Lethbridge, Alberta?

6.
