Biography

Patricia Grocott leads a research programme focused on co-designing medical devices and technologies for individuals at risk of skin breakdown. Her work utilizes user experiences and healthcare system inefficiencies to collaborate with device users, designers, engineers, and material specialists to create solutions that fulfill the specific needs of patients and healthcare providers. The programme includes the co-creation and validation of digital patient-reported outcome indicators, which improve remote patient monitoring during treatment and recovery. Patricia's background in hospice-based clinical nursing inspires her research, stemming from a lack of suitable technologies for the management of extensive skin breakdown in palliative care. She emphasizes the importance of evaluating novel device performance and formulates solutions that not only meet but exceed standard patient-related indicators. With a rich portfolio of co-authored studies, she has significantly contributed to the fields of wound care and patient safety. Patricia's commitment to advancing care through technology is reflected in her approach to both academic research and translational practices for the benefit of vulnerable populations.
