Liverpool University Hospitals Trust and University of Liverpool need volunteers for research survey

We are looking for people to take part in a research study. This study, ‘Decision Making in Older People with Frailty and Head and Neck Cancer’, is looking at how people make decisions about their health care.

However, the study is for people who do not have these cancers.   The purpose of this project is to provide up-to-date information to improve individualised decision making for frail elderly, or potentially frail elderly, patients with head and neck cancer. If you are aged over 65 years of age or are a health care professional looking after patients, who may be over the age of 65 you may be able to help.

Please take your time to read this Participant Information Sheet If there is any information you are unsure about or would like to discuss further please do not hesitate to ask us any questions you may have.  You can also discuss your potential participation with friends, family or your GP if you wish and there is no obligation to take part.

If you would like to take part, we will arrange for you to attend a meeting via video call at a time convenient for you. The interview will last about 30 minutes and will be conducted by one of the researchers.  The researcher will explain things clearly at every step. The interview will not involve any video taping, audio taping or photography.

If you would like to find out more, please contact:

Principal Investigator: Prof. Jo Patterson (Joanne.Patterson@liverpool.ac.uk)

Thanks for your time.
