abstract = {Currently, there is a lack of sustainable, translational
structures in dementia care research that enable a
nationally guided participatory interaction between
research, care practice, and those affected by dementia. A
close cooperation between research and care practice with a
simultaneous inclusion of those affected by dementia is
essential to translate scientific evidence into practice and
address routine care needs in healthcare research. Within
the project TaNDem we aim to close the gap between research
and practice by establishing a translational dementia care
research network with participatory elements. We interviewed
healthcare providers to identify their expectations for the
design and implementation of this network.MethodsWe
interviewed n = 87 stakeholders in healthcare practice and
healthcare research within focus group interviews. We
followed a structured interview guide including, questions
about (i) the main objectives and areas of such network,
(ii) the preferred way of coordination, collaboration, and
interaction, (iii) and barriers and facilitators of
implementation. The recorded interviews were transcribed and
analyzed using qualitative content analysis according to
Mayring.ResultsInterviewees expressed the desire for an
understandable translation of research results for
practitioners, for a strengthening of networking, and for
interaction between research and practice. Stakeholders
would like to see evaluations of healthcare situations in
specific geographic regions and the involvement of people
affected by dementia in research. Furthermore, they
preferred better communication between researchers and
practitioners, support in identifying suitable cooperation
partners, and a unified approach towards health policy.
According to collaboration, regional and national meetings
as well as communication channels could be implemented via
online platforms, databases, or local advisory hubs.
Obstacles mentioned include limitations in terms of staff,
budget and time of stakeholders, as well as regional
differences and duplicate structures. To successfully
implement the TaNDem network, there should be local contact
persons. Furthermore, the cooperation should be based on
trust and jointly defined objectives that add value to the
individual’s work of each member of the research
network.ConclusionThe results show that stakeholders in
healthcare practice and healthcare research have similar
expectations related to a participatory collaboration that
provides an added value to all participants.},
