Clinical Academic Homes

A framework has been established to guide and promote the development of honorary clinical 'homes' within NHS Lothian services for local academic researchers, and honorary academic 'homes' for NHS Lothian NMAHP staff within the partner universities.

The aims of clinical and academic homes are to improve collaboration, develop research capacity and capability, promote quality clinical research with real service impact, engage academic staff more closely with the clinical environment and vice-versa, and improve the translation of evidence into practice.

This Clinical and Academic Homes framework was authorised in 2014 by NHS Lothian's Executive Nurse Director and the Deans/Heads of School of the Nursing/AHP schools of the three partner universities (University of Edinburgh, Queen Margaret University Edinburgh, Edinburgh Napier University).
