One of the aims of Social Care Online is
to make information freely available to the
social care sector. Either through the maintaining
of resources such as the Research Register
for Social Care or by partnering with other
organisations including Ageinfo and Research
in Practice we aim to put a wide range of
resources at your disposal.

Research
Register for Social Care
This is a new resource for social
care research, practice and service
user communities. The RRSC will eventually
record all social care research being
undertaken within Councils with Social
Services Responsibilities (CSSRs)
that has been subject to independent
ethical and scientific review, including
student projects. It can be searched
to obtain summary details of the
individual studies and links to further
information about them.
