Research participants sought

Research participants are requested for a really interesting study being conducted by two UCC Occupational Therapy students.
Carers of those in the advanced stages of dementia are being recruited to determine their use of media supports when caring for their loved ones.
This includes carers whose loved ones are in long term care or passed away within the past five years.
For more information see attached leaflet or contact Claire Joy or Mallaidh Gormley, details on flyers
