3 | Is there an association between access to medical care (e.g. physicians and nurse practitioners) and resident outcomes? |
4 | Are care aides included in decision making about residents? |
5 | Is there an association between the work environment (including physical space) and resident outcomes (e.g. responsive behaviours)? |

7 | What resident characteristics are associated with physical restraint use? |
8 | What resident characteristics are associated with quality of work life (e.g. burnout) and work engagement? |
