It’s Not a Subject You Can Sugar-Coat’—An Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis of Service Providers’ Experiences of Delivering a Domestic Abuse Awareness Intervention
With 2.3 million people in the UK having experienced domestic abuse (DA) in the year ending March 2024, DA represents a severe public health issue. Public interest in DA remains high, with its importance and impact re-emphasised through recent legislative changes. Thus, educating the public about the predictors and consequences of DA and barriers to gaining support can both empower potential victims and enable them to recognise and support others…
Cultural Adaptation and Validation of the Quality of Dying in Long-Term Care Scale (QoD-LTC) for Spanish Nursing Homes
The QoD-LTC scale presents an adequate factorial structure, internal consistency, and feasibility to evaluate psychosocial quality of dying in nursing homes. It can be used as a quality indicator
Therapeutic landscape experiences of everyday geographies within the wider community: A scoping review
Dying in long-term care facilities in Europe: The Pace epidemiological study of deceased residents in six countries
The population dying in long-term care facilities is complex, displaying multiple diseases with cognitive and functional impairment and high levels of dementia. We recommend future policy should include integration of high-quality palliative and dementia care
Ageing and dying in the contemporary neoliberal prison system: Exploring the 'double burden' for older prisoners
Prison populations across the world are increasing. In the United Kingdom, numbers have doubled in the last two decades, and older prisoners now constitute the fastest growing section of the prison population. One key reason for this shifting prisoner demographic is the growing numbers of men convicted of 'historic' sexual offences, many of whom are imprisoned for the first time in old age, and housed in prisons not suited to their needs. These d…
Public involvement in research within care homes: Benefits and challenges in the APPROACH study
BACKGROUND: Public involvement in research (PIR) can improve research design and recruitment. Less is known about how PIR enhances the experience of participation and enriches the data collection process. In a study to evaluate how UK care homes and primary health-care services achieve integrated working to promote older people's health, PIR was integrated throughout the research processes. OBJECTIVES: This paper aims to present one way in which …

Peer education for advance care planning: Volunteers’ perspectives on training and community engagement activities
Background Peer education by volunteers may aid attitudinal change, but there is little understanding of factors assisting the preparation of peer educators. This study contributes to conceptual understandings of how volunteers may be prepared to work as peer educators by drawing on an evaluation of a training programme for peer education for advance care planning (ACP). Objectives To report on volunteers’ perspectives on the peer education train…
Living and dying: Responsibility for end-of-life care in care homes without on-site nursing provision - a prospective study
The aim of the study was to describe the expectations and experiences of end-of-life care of older people resident in care homes, and how care home staff and the healthcare practitioners who visited the care home interpreted their role. A mixed-method design was used. The everyday experience of 121 residents from six care homes in the East of England were tracked; 63 residents, 30 care home staff with assorted roles and 19 National Health Service…
Interagency Working to Support the Health of People Who Are Homeless
Interagency working is a recurrent theme in homelessness policy literature, but is ill defined and rarely addressed in UK homelessness research. This article draws on findings from a study that explored how interagency working is achieved between statutory and voluntary sector services concerned with improving the health of people experiencing homelessness. We argue that a focus on the health needs and behaviours perceived as being a risk to the …
Integrated working between primary health care services and care homes for older people: Challenges from the approach study
Introduction: Within the UK health and social care policy is placing an increasing emphasis on improving the quality of care for older people in care homes through integrated working between health and social care services. This study aims to clarify the research available on integrated working and evaluate its impact on older people in order to devise a typology for informing future service development

The ‘regulated death’: A documentary analysis of the regulation and inspection of dying and death in English care homes for older people
In England, processes of regulation and inspection have been established to ensure that older people living in long-term care settings receive quality care. This paper describes how dying and death in care homes for older people is regulated and inspected. A documentary analysis was undertaken of the standard that addresses dying and death in the 2001 Care Homes for Older People: National Minimum Standards . Present in the standard is a ‘good dea…
A survey of end-of-life care in care homes: Issues of definition and practice
Care homes throughout the UK provide long-term care for frail older people. Whilst care homes are a home for life, many of the older people living in this setting also die there. There is increased interest in improving the care that older people receive in care homes towards the end of life. One way to achieve this has been through links with specialist palliative care services. The knowledge held in care homes by staff, residents and their fami…
Life and death in English nursing homes: Sequestration or transition
Nursing homes as care institutions seek to offer a home where people can live until their death. A potential conflict, therefore, exists as nursing homes are both a place where life is lived and where death is regularly encountered. It has been proposed that within residential care homes for older people, dying individuals are separated from living people. Drawing on fieldwork undertaken in four English nursing homes the management of the dying p…
Rites of passage and the hospice culture
Boundaries exist implicitly and explicitly in the area of life and death. The hospice movement seeks to manage death in an open and participatory way rather than denying or hiding it. By offering this alternative approach to the prevailing medical ideal of cure or prevention the hospice movement obscures these life-death boundaries. One theoretical framework, derived from anthropology, which offers an alternative way to consider the place of dyin…
Tuberculosis: Spatial and demographic incidence in Bradford, 1980-2
Between 1980 and 1982 the incidence of tuberculosis in Bradford Health Authority was approximately 20 times higher among the New Commonwealth and Pakistani population than the rest of the population. It was also possible to see a clustering of cases within this time period, spatially and demographically--in certain age groups and by sex. The difference between the two populations was not due to race but rather reflects the socioeconomic position …
