Survey to collect views on experiences, attitudes and expectations on long-term care.
The InCARE project(this link takes you away from our website) (co-funded by the European Union) team is inviting you to share your point of view through a survey on experiences, attitudes, and expectations on long-term care. We also hope for your support in disseminating the survey to ensure as many people as possible are given the opportunity to express their views.
What is this survey about?
The team would like to understand how people view care for older people with support needs. How do they want those close to them or themselves to be looked after, should they need it? What are their experiences with receiving or providing care? And what are their expectations for the future?
What is the purpose of this study?
Findings from this study will be used to raise awareness of the challenges faced by older people with care needs and their families, and to advocate for policies that can support them.
How can you contribute?
If you are able and willing to contribute, you can answer the survey directly here(this link takes you away from our website). This should not take more than 15 minutes of your time.
Ensuring all those who need it have access to high quality, affordable long-term care, in particular home-care and community-based services, is a major challenge throughout Europe and at the global level. Policy debates are ongoing on how to shape long-term care systems in the future: it is essential that people are given a voice and this survey will contribute to it.
