Recovery following a hip fracture 

We want to speak to older adults who broke their hip following a fall, or their carers. We are particularly interested in speaking to those who live outside of London.

We are interested in hearing what happened after older adults went home from hospital. We want to hear about any care you had in another hospital, at a clinic, or at home, to help with recovery. This care might have included physiotherapy, occupational therapy, or other healthcare professionals.

Recovery following a pelvic fracture

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.
