Exploring Medicines Optimisation and Safety in the Community Following Mental Health Hospital Discharge: A Qualitative Interview Study
BACKGROUND: Medication safety issues may be common following mental health hospital discharge. However, there is little research exploring their aetiology and influencing factors for patients with mental illness and their carers in the community. This study aimed to explore medicine taking, continuity and care following mental health hospital discharge from the perspectives of people with lived experience, their carers and community-based health …
Understanding patient lived experiences of hospital admission and aftercare following Acute Kidney Injury: A ‘Lifeworld’ perspective
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common, harmful and costly clinical syndrome with high rates of unplanned readmissions and poor long-term health outcomes. Recent understandings, expounded in the concept of 'Lifeworld', place the healthcare needs of patients within the wider context of their lives. We aimed to explore patients' lived experience of care following an AKI and healthcare professionals perspectives of the management of AKI and relationa…

While this is typically conceived of as involving organizational members, it may in the health-care context also include patients. Our study aimed to examine ways in which patients might contribute to …
I don’t want to let myself down or the charity down”: Men’s accounts of using various interventions to reduce smoking and alcohol consumption
Men are less likely to seek medical help than women and are more likely to adopt unhealthy practices.

Focus groups and interviews with 12 male university students were analysed using an eclectic approach informed by discursive psychology and Foucauldian discourse analysis. Findings suggested that interventions e…
Participation in voluntary and community organisations in the United Kingdom and the influences on the self-management of long-term conditions
Voluntary and community organisations (VCOs) have health benefits for those who attend and are viewed as having the potential to support long-term condition management. However, existing community-level understandings of participation do not explain the involvement with VCOs at an individual level, or the nature of support, which may elicit health benefits. Framing active participation as 'doing and experiencing', the aim of this qualitative stud…
