Who we are
We are part of the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), West Midlands Clinical Research Network (CRN), supporting growth and opportunities for research in care home and home care services across the West Midlands.
Our role is all about communication, engagement and support. We work with organisations and individuals to help them become research aware and then to become research active. When a partner organisation that is new to research opens a study, we offer support throughout the research project from set up to study close. This is offered via one to one support or group training around a specific research study, and signposting teams to the variety of services and training available to them.
ENRICH supports recruitment of participants in care homes and home care services, including, residents, service users, staff and family members. We are keen to advocate patient and public involvement and connect researcher when needed.
