My research focuses on facilitating care for frail patients by providing support, we can prevent a deterioration in health-related quality of life. We also do this so the frail patients can manage their symptoms and improve their functioning.
Working person-centred benefits the patient and their relatives during the ongoing period of illness and treatment. Person-centred care provides better adherence and, in the long run, and also improved medical outcomes. A conversation where the person meets a listening nurse is described as the basis for then making a joint plan for the upcoming treatment period. The key is the understanding of the situation in which the person is and that the plan is drawn up based on the situation.
The research group works with different specializations for frail patients and research-based with preventing and improving the person-centered through e.g. Health support and decision support where both qualitative and quantitative research is conducted with both retrospective and prospective design is used.
