Preventive foot care that makes a difference – learning, collaboration, and quality of life in elderly care

In collaboration with staff, a practical artefact will be developed and tested to support learning, teamwork, and preventive routines. The study is conducted in three phases: focus groups, co-creative workshops, and a pilot intervention in municipal elderly care. The goal is to improve quality of life, independence, and safety for older adults with diabetes. Ethical approval has been granted for parts of the study (Ref. 2024-07221-01), but a supplementary application may be required for year 3 depending on the intervention design.
