Research Governance Resource Pack 2010 Paul Dolan Birmingham City Council on behalf of ADASS Standards & Performance Network Chairs: Paul Najsarek & Sarah Norman October 2010
Changes since 2005 • Structural and organisational changes in social care and NHS. • ADASS proposals of 2007- now partly superseded by changes in NRES • But research culture still not woven into the fabric of CSSRs. Bricks and straw
Welcome the Pack 2nd ed • ADASS welcomes the publication of this pack as in 2005! • Contains authoritative information for RG leads and their Directors in local authorities • Also references and sources useful for researchers • Places research governance in specific social care context of research regulation, and distinguished from ADASS’s refreshed review system. • Inclusive definition of research • Supports local authority staff and gives good practice examples including service user involvement
Why ADASS continues to support Research Governance • Research governance to strengthen quality appraisal not just risk avoidance • Similar aims - improving standards in health and social care research for the vulnerable, and distinct from NHS • Local evidence from national and local research needs to be of good quality
