Description: The aims of this paper are to outline the background and purpose of a participatory action research (PAR) project, conducted as a pilot study that was designed to use a partnership approach to the prevention and early detection of delirium in older people in the acute hospital setting. In this paper we describe how PAR was used, actions from the PAR process, how sustainability was evidenced and reflections of clinicians who participated in the project.
