Abstract	Purpose: To explore caregiver perceptions of the socio-environmental issues around evening meal ("teatime") which influence choking. Methodology: A qualitative study of caregivers witnessing a choking incident was undertaken. Semi-structured interviews explored perceptions of the causes. Data were analysed using thematic analysis. Findings: Thematic analysis elicited individual service user characteristics, and social and contextual factors implicated in choking. The findings will facilitate risk assessment for service-users and inform mealtime practice. Staff familiarity is a key factor. Further research involving service-users is indicated to complement these findings. This study widens the focus of recent studies which have considered physical more than socio-environmental aspects of mealtime difficulties. (As Provided).
