Opportunity for care homes: Post falls in care homes research - care home and healthcare staff interviews

A research team at Nottingham University Hospitals (NUH) NHS Trust is conducting a research study to develop principles for providing care immediately after an older person falls in a care home (known as post-falls management). The research is sponsored by NUH.

As part of this research, the Trust would like to hear experiences and opinions of care home staff, paramedics and health care professionals to inform the choice of key post-falls management principles. 

They are inviting care home staff and health staff to take part in an interview, either online or by phone, and would like to hear from all staff with experience of post-falls management in care homes. 

They are particularly interested in speaking to staff from minority ethnic backgrounds and/or staff with a non-British nationality to make sure the research reflects the diversity of the workforce in England.

They do not need you to share any personal information, such as names and contact details, directly with them.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss the study, please contact the research team:
