Who we are recruiting
Do you support people living with dementia? We would like to invite you to take part in our research project. The project is exploring what people think of the ADAPT website and toolkit.

We are conducting an interview study at the University of Southampton to explore primary care prescribers’ views and experiences of prescribing for, and providing counselling to, women of reproductive age (15-55 years) about medication use. This is with the aim of supporting prescribers to do this more easily and more safely in future. 

Who can take part
We are looking to interview primary care practitioners who are able to independently prescribe, who work in the general practice setting in the UK, and who have experience of prescribing and caring for women of reproductive age (including GPs, practice nurses and advanced nurse practitioners, clinical pharmacists physician associates and other allied health care professionals). We are in particular looking to interview non-GP prescribers but any prescriber is welcome. The interview will be conducted via videoconferencing (Microsoft Teams), telephone, or face-to-face, at a time convenient to the interviewee. 

What will the interview be about
We will be asking interviewees about their views and experiences of counselling and prescribing medications in women of reproductive age. 

The findings from the interviews will be used to direct future interviews with patients in this group, and to support researchers to develop a primary care-based intervention to facilitate easier and safer medicine counselling for primary care prescribers. 

The interview will last 30-45 minutes and you will receive a £40 voucher for taking part. 

How to participate
👉If you are interested in taking part, please read the participant information sheet and submit your interest by completing our ‘Expression of Interest form’. Upon completing the form, it will be automatically submitted to the research team.

What can I gain from participating?
You will receive a £40 voucher for taking part.
