PROJECT UPDATES

Homecare: Inclusive & Diverse (HID) - Person-Centred Homecare Services for Older Members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, & Intersex (LGBTI) Community 

Research Team: Dr Mel Duffy (PI), Prof Anthony Staines (co-PI), Prof Anne Matthews, Dr Giovanni Frazzetto (post-doc), PPI members – James Geogheghan, Collette Gleeson, Claire Mooney, James O’Hagan, and Sean Vail 

This IRC COALESCE funded research is an interdisciplinary project that examines the lived experience of older community dwelling LGBTI people receiving homecare in Ireland, from lay and professional perspectives. With PPI membership drawn directly from the LGBTI community, it fulfils its principle of ‘nothing about us, without us’. The threefold aim of this project is to examine: i) the homecare experience of older LGBTI people dwelling in the community; ii) uncover homecare professionals’ knowledge of and attitudes towards LGBTI people; and iii) develop an educational resource that will lead to improved practice and quality of homecare services received by older LGBTI people.

A preliminary analysis of the interview data reveals that the lived experience of older members of the LGBTI community of homecare in Ireland reflects similar realities described in the wider international literature, whereby lack of trust, respect and understanding, as well as uncomfortableness in the presence of and preconceived notions about LGBTI people, flourish in this sector. The survey has just been completed. The combination of the findings from the first two components of the project will be used to design an educational resource.

CHRISALIS (Cultural, Heritage and Religious Impact on Social Acceptance and Lives of the InterSex)

Research Team: Dr Mel Duffy, Dr Martha Prandelli, Dr Tanya Ni Mhuirthile, Prof Peter Hegarty Intersex organisations in Ireland (Intersex Ireland), Italy (IntersexEsiste) and Europe (OII Europe)

CHRISALIS is an interdisciplinary project in social psychology, sociology and law, exploring the roles of ethical-moral beliefs and culture in shaping intersex experiences, bodies and healthcare in Ireland and Italy. The aim of the project is to lay the foundation for national and European intersex policies. The project commenced in September 2023. The Advisory Board met for the first time in December to discuss the project impact and its possible strategic outcomes. CHRISALIS is funded by the European Union under the Horizon Europe grant no. 101067189 (HORIZON-MSCA-2021-PF-01).

ABC4Nurses 

Research Team: Dr Amanda Drury, PI (DCU) and Prof Theresa Wiseman PI (Royal Marsden, UK), Ms Celia Diez de Los Rios (EONS), Dr Gulcan Bagcivan (Koc University, Turkey), Dr Grigorios Kotronoulas (University of Glasgow, UK), Dr Maura Dowling (National University of Ireland Galway, Ireland), Dr Amanda Shewbridge (Guys Cancer Academy, UK), Sema Erdem (Europa Donna, Turkey) and Violet Aroyo (Europa Donna, Turkey).

This European Oncology Nursing Society (EONS) education research programme was led by Dr Amanda Drury.  A systematic review was completed and published by the research team to confirm the need for a new, bespoke educational programme for nurses in Advanced Breast Cancer (ABC) (Drury et al 2022). Subsequently a Delphi study was conducted to gain consensus on the content of the educational programme for nurses in ABC and the results were published in the Nurse Education Today (Drury et al 2023). The final component of the project, a free online learning programme for nurses on the subject of ABC has been developed, implemented and evaluated (Dowling et al, 2023). The programme has been translated into 4 languages to date and has been accessed by 272 nurses since its launch in early 2023.

‘Breaking down barriers’ 

Research Team: 

Dr Kumaresan Cithambaram, Dr Deirdre Corby, Dr Liz Hartnett, Dr Sean Healy, Dr David Joyce.

The ‘Breaking down barriers’ study was funded by the National Screening Service in the Health Service Executive. It was undertaken to inform efforts to increase access to screening among disabled people in Ireland. It’s the first study of its type to be carried out in Ireland. The study sought to explore the needs of disabled people in accessing national screening services. This was the first study of its type to be carried out in Ireland. The study direction, scope and methodology was informed by National Screening Service staff members and an advisory committee consisting of disabled people. The study aimed to examine the perspectives and experiences of disabled people in accessing screening services and to assess factors that influence their uptake of, and participation of population-based screening programmes. Twenty disabled people participated in the study, representing those with Intellectual Disabilities, Autism, physical impairment, visual impairment, and the Deaf community. In addition, five healthcare professionals and five family carers were involved in the study. This report identified the positive experiences of disabled people in accessing the screening services and the strategies the NSS adopted to improve access. Despite these efforts,disabled people still experience several issues and challenges in accessing screening services. The significant role of the NSS in promoting and implementing screening among eligible participants is highly valued among the participants. However, disabled people suggested the importance of collaborative work between the NSS, Disabled People’s Organisations (DPOs), and disability services to improve access to services.

SELECTED PRESENTATIONS

Kate Pleace

Kate Pleace provided an update on Primary Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) and fertility care at the British Fertility Society Conference in Edinburgh. Her presentation covered an overview of POI, fertility treatment options for affected patients, and the impact of receiving a diagnosis of POI. The talk emphasized the importance of improved support and ongoing counseling for individuals with POI, given the condition's chronic nature. It also highlighted the need for a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach to care from healthcare professionals, addressing challenges such as the lack of training and specialized clinics in this area.

The presentation also focused on Kate’s PhD research, which is looking at women’s lived experience of POI, using a phenomenological approach to look at the emotional impact of living with POI.  This research aims to provide valuable insights into the experiences of individuals with POI and contribute to a better understanding of how to support them effectively.
