NET2019 - Collected stories: Being cared for at home. The development of a story book resource

The experience of collecting stories to raise the profile of nursing in a community setting will be presented. In total, 19 stories were collected which highlight the breadth and complexity of the care delivered in this complex and often isolated environment. It provides an insight into patient and carer experiences of the District Nursing Service and also includes reflections from nurses who provide care in this environment. These stories have been collated, illustrated and demonstrate the rich tapestry that is ‘District Nursing’.
