Abstract / Summary

Despite calls for action, staff working in care homes are typically underrepresented in the research literature. Care homes are complex environments which makes conducting research in such environments difficult. As a likely result, many care home staff are unfamiliar with research. This is concerning since research is necessary to advance practice and meet the needs of patients. A systematic search of the literature showed there is a paucity of evidence that explores how care home staff perceive research.
This anonymous qualitative data set provides insights into how care home staff in Cornwall perceive and experience research.
