The research aims to understand how infections spread in aged care and how infection control policies impact residents' health and wellbeing.

Your lived experience matters. Which is why the team is prioritising residents themselves—a group rarely included in aged care research—plus family, friends, and carers.

The study welcomes people from diverse cultural backgrounds and residents with cognitive impairments who can provide informed consent with support from a family member or legal representative.

Interviews can be in person, by phone, or online, and participants receive a gift voucher.
