Multi-morbidity, treatment burden and service provision for people experiencing homelessness/SMD- a mixed method study

Supervisors: 

Professor Andrea E Williamson, School of Health & Wellbeing (University of Glasgow)

Dr Richard Lowrie, Centre for Homelessness and Inclusion Health (University of Edinburgh)

Professor Sara Macdonald, School of Health & Wellbeing (University of Glasgow)

Summary: 

This PhD will enable the student to study multi-morbidity and treatment burden as a novel lens for considering what best practice service provision should be for people experiencing homelessness and the wider experience of severe and multiple disadvantage. This will include further analysis of an existing data set gathered in a recent pilot randomised controlled trial of people experiencing homelessness and developing a qualitative study involving professionals and experts by experience of homelessness.  This project will suit a student keen to gain mixed methods expertise, applied health service research and especially in qualitative methods in the Inclusion Health field.
