Getting involved with the Brightwater Research Centre means you can make a difference to the lives of people who are ageing, living with dementia, Huntington’s Disease, or have an acquired neurological disability.
The Brightwater Research Centre is responsible for approving, coordinating and monitoring all research activities with Brightwater, and approval is formalised through the Brightwater Research Steering Committee.
Research enquiries are reviewed on the second Thursday of every month. New research enquiries must be submitted using the online form and received one week prior.
A member of the research team will be in contact within one week of the scheduled meeting date to inform you of the research enquiry outcome.
Thank you for your interest in research with Brightwater and our commitment to improving the lives of our clients.
We help clients and residents to thrive, connect and belong through best practice, compassionate care.
For over 100 years, we’ve been there for West Australians from all walks of life. With humble beginnings in Subiaco, today we provide services all across Perth.
We are the only WA home care provider with a dedicated Research Centre – a hub of discovery and innovation, collaborating with national and international universities to find innovative solutions to improve the quality of lives of our clients.
We were selected in 2018 to run the Australian pilot Specialist Dementia Care Unit, accommodating clients who would otherwise require care in a hospital setting and our learning will influence the whole industry in the coming years.
