Collaboration

Research Partners & Care Home Partnerships

Captain’s Chair works alongside care homes and research organizations as true partners — sharing credit, resources, and the work of improving dementia care.

A mutually beneficial partnership

We approach care homes as research partners, not just venues. The arrangement is designed to deliver real value on both sides.

What Captain’s Chair provides

  • Full research platform and clinical technology
  • Weekly lunch for all participants, funded through our research program
  • Payment to the home for hosting — space and staff time — funded through our research program
  • All data collection, analysis, and reporting
  • Co-acknowledgment in published research outcomes

What the care home provides

  • Physical space for weekly sessions
  • Access to community participants with early-stage dementia
  • Basic staff support during sessions

Why care homes partner with us

Care homes gain tangible value from the partnership — beyond just contributing to important research.

Community Engagement

Bring seniors — and their families — into your space for a meaningful, structured weekly activity. Strengthen your community presence and relationships with prospective residents.

Research Funding

Homes are compensated for their space and staff time through our research program. Participation in Captain’s Chair research requires no capital investment from the care home.

Early Technology Access

Partner homes gain early access to Captain’s Chair technology as it develops — built specifically for dementia care environments.
