In this informal case study based on the authors{\textquoteright} collective experiences of an unraveling of the research process, the challenges and issues faced in assessing the health benefits of the {\textquotedblleft}Music \& Memory{\textquotedblright} iPod program in a complex continuing care hospital wing are discussed. Specifically, the lessons learned through the processes of acquiring ethical approval to work with a particularly vulnerable population, of effectively measuring the benefits of the program, and of the day-to-day logistical issues are recounted, with suggestions for overcoming these challenges through transferable practices for working with vulnerable or older adults and mobilizing the knowledge gained.}, keywords = {challenges, community engagement, complex care, health, knowledge mobilization, music, older adults}, issn = {1927-0321}, doi = {http://doi.org/10.22215/timreview/1019}, url = {http://timreview.ca/article/1019}, author = {Renate Ysseldyk and Angela Paric and Tracy Luciani} }
