Summary

This study explores whether a six-week inclusive art program can improve psychosocial health—like self-esteem, mood, and social connectedness—for adults with physical disabilities living in residential care homes. Fifty participants will take part in weekly 90-minute art sessions led by a nurse. Researchers will measure changes in sense of control, self-esteem, self-efficacy, mood, and social connectedness before and after the program to see if it is feasible and beneficial.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
inclusive art program
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, low-cost way to improve emotional well-being and social connection for people with physical disabilities in residential care.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early feasibility study with only 50 participants and no comparison group, so results may not be generalizable. The program's benefits are uncertain and may not be sustained long-term.
