Great co-production event yesterday at the Nubian Life Centre with 18 African & Caribbean community members with experience of dementia care, helping us group categories for our systematic review. Lovely to meet NIHR-funded project colleagues in person too! @WCEBC_official

We enjoyed presenting the first morning of the @JBIEBHC Scoping Review Training today with part two taking place tomorrow. We had participants as far afield as Saudi Arabia, Trinidad & Belgium and look forward to continuing our discussions in the morning @CUHealthSci @k8button

A scoping review mapped how occupational therapists evaluate the outcomes of their services in primary care - an area that remains under researched- and explores how these evaluation methods align with the principles of value-based healthcare👇 ow.ly/2YCs50UKBhh #JBIEBHC
