Public Involvement to Enhance Care Home Research; Collaboration on a Minimum Data Set for Care Homes
INTRODUCTION: Information on care home residents in England is captured in numerous data sets (care home records, General Practitioner records, community nursing, etc.) but little of this information is currently analysed in a way that is useful for care providers, current or future residents and families or that realises the potential of data to enhance care provision. The DACHA study aimed to develop and test a minimum data set (MDS) which woul…
Care home co-worker relationships
The relationships that care home staff have with their co-workers are a key influence on the way they feel about their work and how they perform in their roles. This has a direct influence on quality of care and life as experienced by residents. However, care home providers face a challenge to promote co-worker relationships because: (a) the care home workforce often lack human resource oversight; (b) registered managers (and nurses), who often l…
Negotiating pace, focus and identities
Patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) is an increasingly important component of research conduct to enhance processes and potential for impact, yet is rarely critically interrogated. This paper draws on Foucauldian analysis to highlight the disciplinary powers and tensions arising in PPIE. The paper draws on a nested evaluation interview study with three PPIE members and eight academics, who had been involved in an implementation s…
A qualitative exploration of the clinical presentation, trajectory, management and recovery of Covid ‐19 in older people
COVID-19 had a devastating impact on older people living in care homes. This study explored the clinical trajectory and management of COVID-19, as well as recovery of older people following infection during the early stages of the pandemic (May to August 2020). A two-phase exploratory qualitative study was used. Frontline staff with experience of caring for older people with COVID-19 were recruited to Phase 1, and senior care home operational and…
Patient and public involvement in care home research
BACKGROUND: There is limited evidence for the impact of involving patients and the public (PPI) in health research. Descriptions of the PPI process are seldom included in publications, particularly data analysis, yet an understanding of processes and impacts of PPI is essential if its contribution to research is to be evaluated. OBJECTIVE: To describe the 'how' of PPI in qualitative data analysis and critically reflect on potential impact. METHOD…
The development of the new assistant practitioner role in the English National Health Service
Adopting a critical realist perspective, this article examines the emergence of a relatively new non-professional healthcare role, the assistant practitioner (AP). The role is presented as a malleable construct cascading through and sensitive to structure-agency interaction at different levels of NHS England: the sector, organisation and department. At the core of the analysis is the permissiveness of structures established at the respective leve…
Exploring patient perceptions of larval therapy as a potential treatment for venous leg ulceration
Objectives To explore patient preferences and acceptability of two forms of larval therapy (‘bagged’ and ‘loose’). Background Larval therapy is frequently used to treat patients with leg ulcers. However, patient preferences and acceptability of larval therapy when compared with other treatments is not established. Design A survey of patient preferences between larvae and standard therapy (hydrogel) using randomized allocation of two questionnaire…
