Previous AMR Event

Author Meets Readers | Care Homes in a Turbulent Era: Do They have a Future? considers whether and how care homes could be transformed to offer conditions of dignity and respect for all those who live in, work in, and visit in nursing homes. But it goes further, to ask, can care homes be transformed to promote pleasure and joy? The contributing research team members’ answer to these questions is YES.
