title: Carers' perceptions of the enhanced recovery programme in colorectal surgery.
abstract: The Enhanced Recovery Programme (ERP) is widely used, especially within colorectal surgery. It is structured around a patient centred decision making process, and the evidence to support the ERP is well documented. Much of the literature focuses on patients' perceptions of the ERP, with qualitative evaluation of their experiences. However, the experience of the ERP from a carer's perspective has yet to be explored.
