Title: Caring Through the Troubles
Published: August 2002
Author: Marie Smyth, Mike Morrissey and Jennifer Hamilton
Details:
This study investigated the impact of the Troubles and the potential ‘additional’ costs associated with the delivery of health and social care in North and West Belfast. A variety of research methods were implemented. Initially, two sets of data collected by the Cost of the Troubles Study (1999) were re-analysed. The first was a data set of deaths related to the Troubles and the second was data generated by a survey, which aimed to ascertain the overall impact of political violence on the Northern Ireland population. Existing data was also collected from the Eastern Health and Social Services Board, North and West Trust and South and East Trust. Data was also obtained from the Northern Ireland Housing Executive. Focus group discussions and in-depth individual interviews were conducted with North and West Trust workers.
