About

Dr Sara McKelvie is an NIHR Clinical Lecturer at the School of Primary Care Research. She is interested in community-based alternatives to hospitalisation for older people with complex health and social needs.

Sara is interested in the future workforce needed for primary and community care and the changing roles of healthcare professionals within this.
