  14. PROmoting self-management to meet the health needs of family CARERS of people with dementia: The Pro-Carers Study Deborah Oliveira, Jim Radburn, Martin Orrell, Lidia Sousa 0115 7484306 Funder: Nottinghamshire County Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) 2016/17 Research Capability Funding June 2017

  15. What is the purpose of the study? • February 2017 to February 2018 • Aims: • To understand family carers’ unmet health needs • What can be done to help carers to look after their own health? • To help Nottinghamshire CCGs to target carers’ main priorities, direct support, and prevent health problems

  16. What is this study about and why it is needed? Family carers of PwD are essential for the NHS and the UK population as they help save approximately £132 billion of public funds every year. Due to the need to provide intensive care for PwD, carers often neglect their own health -> higher morbidity and increased NHS costs(Carers UK, 2015; White, 2013). Significant impact on carers’ quality of life (QoL), use of health care services, and ability to continue to provide care for their family members. Funder: Nottinghamshire County Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) 2016/17 Research Capability Funding

  17. How we will achieve these? • The study has three steps: • 1) Consultation of research and clinical experts using a questionnaire; • 2) Threeconsultation events to ask carers, practitioners, and policy makers, as well as voluntary organisations, about their views and experiences on family carers’ health and self-care. • Carers/practitioners will be specifically asked about: • their experiences of day-to-day facilitators and barriers to self-care • their views on the practicalities and feasibility of self-care activities • 14 August, 11 September, 23 October, at Institute of Mental Health

  18. 3) Sixfocus groups : Carers will be asked: • What can be done to improve their unmet needs • What they are willing to do to improve their health • Their opinions on a future self-care intervention Clinicians/practitioners will be asked: • Meeting carers’ needs, • Day-to-day barriers and facilitators • What is practical/feasible?
