Remotely delivered interventions - NIHR OPFPRU Covid-19 Rapid Research Response Webinar

The Older People and Frailty Research Unit is Funded by the National Institute of Health Research to provide independent advice to policy makers in the UK. In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the NIHR Older People and Frailty Policy Research Unit (OPFPRU) carried out a series of critical rapid responsive research projects to directly inform policy and practice during the early months of lockdown in 2020 on behalf of the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC). This webinar will showcase this learning, to inform decision making as we progress into a second lockdown through the winter months. It will be of interest to policy makers, both central and local levels, as well as public health and local authorities, health and social care practitioners, voluntary and community response stakeholders amongst many others. This online webinar will present key findings from this work and offer the opportunity for discussion via Zoom.
