Kate Blamires is currently undertaking an MSc at the Tizard Centre and for her dissertation she is hoping to look at how the new DOLS procedures are working for people with learning disabilities (supervised by Prof Glynis Murphy).
The aim is to interview care managers and home managers for people with LD where DOLS have been applied for. Kate is completely cleared for ethics (through SCREC, which covers social care venues and also covers NHS venues). She has been experiencing immense difficulty tracking down any examples of DOLS for LD, and wondered if anyone might be able to help?
Please let Kate know if you think you might be able to help identify potential participants. Email: kb398@kent.ac.uk
