We made a short video this morning with Margaret (one of our lived experience advisors). Will upload and share soon so you can see watch her summarise her role on the Needs Rounds study.

Lovely to get the chance to talk about NeedsRounds with the team at Marie Curie Scotland yesterday. So much potential with this approach, in supporting palliative care for care home residents.
Gearing up for the final Steering Group meeting for the UK Needs Rounds study. Focus on policy influence - what are your top ideas for how and where to influence policy?
Submitted abstracts for the 2023 EAPC conference - so hoping to see many care home researchers and clinicians there!
One abstract on the implementation, one on PPIE #Involvement with @isoulsby001 @aishamacgregor @SpillersK @ProfBrendan
