National Institute for Health and Care Research
Stand C7
Working in partnership with the NHS, universities, local government, other research funders, service users and the public, we fund, enable and deliver world-leading health and social care research that improves people's health and wellbeing and promotes economic growth.
We are funded by the Department of Health and Social Care. Our work focuses on early translational research, clinical research and applied health and social care research.
We are centred on England but collaborate closely with the devolved administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. We are also a major funder of applied health research in low and middle income countries, work that is principally funded through UK aid from the UK government.

Conducting research in care homes: Benefits and opportunities
Care homes offer a number of unique opportunities for delivering health research when compared to the more traditional settings of primary care (general practice) and secondary care.
In this video Care Home Manager, Mary Harrison, and Research Nurse, Angus Sturrock,
explain what care homes have to offer and convey how care home employees, residents and relatives are keen to take part. Care home resident, Doreen, also explains why she takes part in health resarch projects when opportunities arise.

Enabling Research in Care Homes 2020
Enabling Research in Care Homes
Transforming out-of-hospital care for people who are homeless with Dr Michelle Cornes
NIHR funded research shows that hospitals with access to a specialist step-down service for their homeless patients saw an 18% reduction in A&E visits.
What is the ENabling Research In Care Homes network (ENRICH)?
ENRICH brings together care home staff, residents and their families with researchers. It helps care homes make the most of research; and researchers to set up and run studies effectively and collaboratively in care homes.
