Research
Her research interests include health and quality of life of older people, their living conditions, needs and care in relation to decreased functional ability during the aging process.

Research is also focused on person centered care, and seamless care organization. At the moment she is involved in several ongoing research projects; SNAC (www.snac.org), digital decision support system together with Rikssår, sedentary behavior and self-care management (planning and monitoring) and Best practice of integrated care. The projects are funded by national grants, The National board of health and welfare, Vinnova, Region Blekinge and Familjen Kamprad stiftelsen.
The focus in the projects is older people health, care, selfcare as well as ehealth/mhealth and different designs and methods are used aiming to answer the research questions; longitudinal-, cross-sectional, clinical trials, co-design/participatory design, concepts analysis and qualitative designs. The ambition in the projects is to better understand the patients´ and staff´s situation when transforming health care delivery, including the use of innovative ehealth/mhealth technology for health promotion and better health outcomes. The activities include development/validation of a health application and measurements, deepen the knowledge about older people’s life condition and the interaction between the patient and the health care organization. CF has been and is advisor for PhD students.
CF is a member and the co-PI of the research group ReAction.
