Bernie McInally - Research and the Lone Worker

Bernie McInally - Research and the Lone Worker

Bernie McInally narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In this blog, Bernie reflects on the often-overlooked area of lone worker safety in research. Drawing on 25 years of experience as a Community Psychiatric Nurse and Clinical Studies Officer, he explores the evolution of safety systems — from pegboards and coded texts to modern digital tools. The blog examines the evidence behind “Bring Your Own Device” policies, showing how familiarity, simplicity, and trust can make lone worker procedures safer, more efficient, and better aligned with real-world practice.
