Would you like to join the British Society of Gerontology Care Homes Research Special Interest Group?

The BSG Care Homes Research SIG is a collective of academics, practitioners and other stakeholders with a common interest in care home research.

‘The SIG aims to strengthen research, policy, and practice in all areas of care homes research, including those related to staff, residents, family members and carers, as well as the home environment, and its links with external organisations. We also aim to develop complementary working relationships with the other British Society of Gerontology SIGs, as well as other groups and organisations that support care homes research. 

Our objectives are to:

·       provide platforms for discussion and debate;

·       facilitate the development of research collaborations and funding proposals;

·       increase capacity for care home research;

·       promote methodological development around the novel challenges in care homes research;

·       support the dissemination and application of research findings to improve the lives of residents, carers and other   stakeholders’
