Do you have experience of working in a care home?

Older people living in care homes, particularly those with dementia and similar conditions, are less likely to be involved in research than other populations despite often having the highest and most complex care needs. This project aims to explore how care home residents, and their carers, can be better engaged in research, and the barriers and facilitators to their inclusion.

PhD student Brittany Nocivelli would like to hear your opinions on how care home residents can be better involved in research to hear thoughts and opinions on how to appropriately communicate with care home residents at each stage of the project.

She is inviting people with experience of working in a care home, past or present, or people who have relatives living in a care home to participate in a short survey.

If you would like to find out more about the research project or request a paper copy of the survey, please send an expression of interest to Brittany Nocivelli at Cardiff University
