Foot & Ankle

The aim of this observational study is to: (1) describe current knowledge and practices related to foot care in care homes; (2) understand how care home staff, residents and/or family caregivers perceive foot care knowledge and practices. For the first study, the investigators are conducting a survey, and this will involve recruiting care staff working in care homes, managers of care homes, and staff in regular contact with care home residents (e.g. clinicians). The second study will involve interviews with care home staff (carers, care home managers and health professionals) and care home residents and/or their family representative.
