‘It Was About as Far at Odds With Our Provider Failure Protocol…as You Can Get’. Untangling Care Policy When Care Homes Close
This article takes an extreme case ‐ the emergency closure of a care home on a Friday evening ‐ to explore how a lack of coordination between national and local stakeholders led to a brutalising experience for frail residents and social care staff. Care home closures sit at the interface of multiple policy domains including funding, infrastructure, staffing, quality assurance and regulation. Drawing on interviews with managers and wider stakehold…
Understanding older people’s experiences of care home closure through the lenses of precarity and transition
This article addresses a gap in current evidence by examining the experiences of older people and families when care homes close. We adopt the dual lenses of the precarity of ageing and adaptation to transition to facilitate understanding of the structural and experiential dimensions of care home closure. We argue that the experiences of older people and their families of care home closure are a largely hidden example of the increasing precarity …
What happens when care homes close? A review of the literature
In a fraught fiscal and post-pandemic context, English adult social care is likely to see further care home closures. To make sure that closures minimise distress and potentially negative outcomes for residents, this article reports findings from an analytical narrative review of the existing research evidence about the process and outcome of such closures in the UK. Despite the importance of these issues, there is little underpinning research to…
Impacts of an Intervention to Improve the Identification, Referral and Safety of Those Experiencing Domestic Violence
This study is the first evaluation of the impacts on long-term health issues (and associations with ethnicity and poverty) of a domestic violence intervention, Identification and Referral to Improve Safety (IRIS). IRIS is a domestic violence training, support and referral programme based mainly in primary care settings. This was a convergent, parallel, mixed methods UK study. In the quantitative phase, we matched the health records of 294 patient…
The Experiences of Post-Separation Survivors of Domestic Violence During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Post-separation for domestic violence (DV) survivors is known to be a period of heightened risk of domestic homicide. Evidence points to increased rates of DV during the Covid-19 pandemic, with specific challenges in help-seeking from DV services, yet studies that capture this qualitatively are still emerging. This UK study investigated the experiences of 21 separated DV survivors (all women) during the Covid-19 pandemic. Inductive, thematic anal…
Bereavement support in the UK – a rapid evidence assessment

This rapid evidence assessment was undertaken to evaluate the provision and effectiveness of bereavement support in the United Kingdom (UK) and to identify gaps in service provision and areas of need with regard to bereavement services.The main finding of the review was that the provision of bereavement …
