Recovery following a pelvic fracture
We want to speak to older adults who broke their pelvis following a fall, or their carers.
Link to organisation:
Full description:
Sometimes when an older person falls, they break their pelvis. A lot of the time the break can get better without surgery. We are interested in hearing about the care in hospital and in the early stages after leaving hospital. We are particularly interested in speaking with those who did not have surgery. Our aim is to better understand what works well and what could be improved to inform a developing programme of research. We will hold a one-hour workshop online for those interested.
