How is research making a visit to the hospital better for people living with dementia

<p><strong>On the 7th September 2020, </strong><a href="https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/podcast-profile-adam-smith/">⁠⁠⁠<strong>Adam Smith</strong>⁠⁠⁠</a><strong> hosted the Dementia Research Chatathon LIVE - to share information on the wide variety of research taking place across the world, and the raise money for Alzheimer&#39;s Research UK.

My work is grounded in participatory research approaches and utilises co-production and collaborative research partnerships with people living with dementia - <a href="https://twitter.com/courtneyjshaw1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@courtneyjshaw1</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/clairesurr?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">⁠</a> <strong>Dr Emily Jones</strong>, Senior Matron for Medicine at Portsmouth Hospital University NHS Trust. In my clinical academic doctorate I explored how the work system of an acute hospital impacted nursing staff&#39;s capacity to care for people with dementia. The findings indicated that nurses are driven by the priorities of the organisation, which unfortunately is not high quality dementia care but patient flow and patient safety initiatives. Nurses struggle with feelings of guilt and fear with regards to their work, guilt for not providing good care but fear of not completing the task &quot;visible&quot; to the organisation. The research raises questions about nursing autonomy and decision making, particularly with regards to the organisation of their work and also how we make dementia care tangible. <a href="https://twitter.com/emilyjonesmed" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@emilyjonesmed</a></p>

Claire works in dementia care and services research. She recently completed the DCM EPIC Study, What Works Study (components of effective dementia training) and CanDem Study (experiences of cancer treatment and care by people with dementia) - <a href="https://twitter.com/clairesurr?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@clairesurr</a> <strong>Dr Laura Booi</strong>, Research Associate, Newcastle University. Laura&#39;s research brings together international dementia advocacy, and patient-public-involvement, engaging both the next generation of dementia focused leaders as well as marginalized, often unheard voices affected by dementia. As a trained social gerontologist, she has spent the last dozen years working towards understanding and making long-term residential care for dementia better for those working and living in this sector - <a href="https://twitter.com/DementiaHealth" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@DementiaHealth</a> <strong>Dr Victoria Shepherd</strong>, Research Associate, Cardiff University. Victoria is involved in the design and conduct of clinical trials, with a particular interest in the methodological aspects of care home research. Her research primarily focuses on addressing the ethical and practical challenges of involving adults who lack capacity to consent in research, and developing interventions to support decision-making by consultees/legal representatives - <a href="https://twitter.com/VickyLShepherd" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@VickyLShepherd</a> </p>
