Australia is increasingly prioritising "ageing-in-place," supporting older adults to live at home longer, accessing home care, rather than moving into residential aged care. Engaging older adults living in residential aged care in research is a matter of visiting a single site (or two). But home care research doesn’t just take place down the hall - it is scattered across postcodes and private homes. How do we meaningfully engage home care recipients in research?
In this webinar you will hear from a home care provider, a researcher, and a consumer with lived experience. Together, they will unpack what it takes to build relationships, foster trust, and create research environments where home care recipients are engaged to participate.
Whether you are a researcher, practitioner, policymaker, or student, this session will offer grounded, real‑world guidance to support more inclusive, ethical, and effective research with older people ageing at home.
