AQUEDUCT (Achieving Quality and Effectiveness in Dementia Using Crisis Teams) is a research project that aims to develop a resource kit for dementia crisis trials and perform an RCT to investigate if the resource kit has better outcomes in terms of hospital admissions, quality of life and costs. The project is sponsored by Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and works with crisis teams in dementia care to investigate whether the use of a Resource Kit helps prevent hospital admissions.

My research uses virtual (computer-animated) nature environments to trigger conversations. This way we hope to improve social wellbeing among older adults and people with dementia.
