JOB SUMMARY

The SAER Fitness Instructor will work collaboratively with a study team consisting of researchers, clinicians and patients to run an exercise and physical activity promotion intervention for South Asian patients after their discharge from supervised rehabilitation for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) at two community sites based in Abbotsford and Surrey.

ORGANIZATIONAL STATUS

The Centre for Clinical Epidemiology & Evaluation (C2E2) undertakes research and training and provides evidence-based advice to advance a sustainable health system for British Columbians. C2E2 scientists and many of its staff, including this position are part of the School of Population and Public Health (SPPH). SPPH is an innovative unit that encompasses many of the health-related groupings at UBC as a collaborative venture. The School is structured around four divisions: Occupational and Environmental Health; Health Services and Policy; Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Public Health Practice; and Health in Populations. The resulting mix of professions and disciplines is seen as a means of connecting individuals and learners to galvanize the relationship between health research, public health and health services and to enhance learning.

The SAER Fitness Instructor will be accountable to the UBC Principal Investigator. The incumbent will communicate daily with the Intervention Development Specialist and the Study Research Coordinator.

WORK PERFORMED

The SAER Fitness Instructor will:
- Lead the exercise and physical activity program specifically designed for patients of South Asian origin who have had knee replacement surgery and have completed their rehabilitation. The program will include walking, dancing, strength training, balance activities, education, and activity coaching.

CONSEQUENCE OF ERROR

This position acts with considerable independence although close communication and coordination with the research team is essential. The incumbent's doings and demeanor reflect on research done at UBC. Poor decisions or errors may cause a loss of reputation for the PI, the research team and UBC.

SUPERVISION RECEIVED

After initial training, works independently with regular consultation with the core study team members including the UBC Principal Investigator, Behavioural Intervention Specialist and the Research Coordinator.
