‘It was just- everything was normal’: Prendergast et al. 2022

This paper presents findings from interviews with people involved in TRIO, a Shared Lives day support service. The interviews helped develop a logic model for the service.

An overarching theme of the interviews was the importance of the triadic caring relationships which developed.

These relationships benefited those involved in the service.
