SUMMARY:Research Showcase - Building Digital Maturity in Care Homes
DESCRIPTION:How well is technology embedded into everyday life in UK care homes? And what needs to change for digital approaches to genuinely support residents\, staff and services? \nThis livestream guest hosted by Dr Anglea Carter is part of the Dementia Researcher weekly Showcase series\, guest hosted by Dr Angela Carter. Each week we host a 45 minute online session bringing researchers together to share their work\, methods and ideas. \nIn this session\, Dr Maria Drummond will present work from Embedding Technology in Care Homes: Progress towards Digital Maturity (ETECH-DM)\, a 30-month mixed-methods study examining digital maturity in care homes across the UK. \nMaria will explore how technology is currently being used in everyday care home life\, the barriers and enablers influencing digital development\, and how technology could support person-centred care\, staff wellbeing and service delivery. Drawing on sociotechnical perspectives\, the project will work with the sector to co-design practical tools and guidance to help care homes navigate digital transformation. \nThe session will also introduce findings and learning from the project’s UK-wide survey of older adult care homes\, mapping digital infrastructure\, technology use\, workforce readiness\, leadership approaches and priorities for future development. \nMaria is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Glasgow and Team Leader for ENRICH Scotland\, which works to support research within care home settings and strengthen collaboration between researchers\, care home staff\, residents and families. \nAttendees can expect a practical and research focused session with time for questions and discussion. \n\nRegister
