Organising general practice for care homes

A multi-method study

“At the end of this project, we will have a better understanding of which of the different ways that GPs work with care homes are better than others for residents, staff and the public purse. We will work closely with stakeholders and policy makers to make sure that our work influences what happens at a local level. Improving the experiences and outcomes of care home residents is our overall goal.”

“This study will provide empirical evidence to a) inform organisational change in general practice, b) support commissioners and providers to make best use of resources, and c) ultimately help residents, family and staff influence and choose the primary medical care services they would like to receive.”
