Information for care homes

Care homes

COVID-19 can be more severe in older people and people with underlying health conditions, and consequently has particularly affected people in nursing and care homes.

We urgently need nursing and care homes to support the study and help us identify drugs that improve recovery and prevent hospitalisation, in people with COVID-19.

I f you are a care home provider, you can support the trial in various ways from displaying posters to actively recruiting participants. Whatever the level of involvement you require, we can provide you with resources needed.

For information about how care homes can help identify potential participants for PRINCIPLE, please download these slides.

The PRINCIPLE Trial has been fortunate enough to have the support of the British Geriatric Society. We have included a link through to a blog post on their website that includes lots of relevant information on how you can help with the PRINCIPLE Trial.
