Abstract
Background: The Student Education and Participation Program that has evolved at Helping Hand Aged Care over the past decade is based on ongoing research and evaluation, and a highly innovative example of the teaching nursing home model has emerged.
Methods: Drawing on that body of work and findings from the national evaluation of Australia’s TRACS (Teaching and Research Aged Care Services) programme (2012–2015) an analysis of the model is presented.
Results and conclusions: Lessons learned about the challenges faced, enabling factors, the benefits generated and outcomes achieved are presented.
