Care at Home services – Take part in Lifecurve™ research

Care at Home services – Take part in Lifecurve™ research

We are encouraging care at home organisations to contribute to the largest piece of Scottish Care research ever to be conducted with a view to influencing future decisions and investment in a preventative approach to care:

  • It should take 5 minutes to complete

  • It will provide a national snapshot of current care provision

  • It will allow researchers to access information on the timing and effectiveness of intervention

  • Your organisation can complete as many as you like throughout the month of October

We are aiming to gather 3000+ responses by working with all of our Care at Home providers. Such a large sample should produce truly representative results and provide gravitas for the outcome to have influence. We request that each provider complete and return 3-4 forms, but you are welcome to complete more.

How do I take part?

Familiarise yourself and your staff with the Lifecurve™:

Throughout October, ask staff to undertake this short survey with the people they support (including completing the consent form):

Complete the survey itself, one per individual, with as many individuals as you like:

Please return all completed surveys and consent forms to:
