A great presentation on deconditioning @HayleyHodgsonOT highlighting it not just therapists getting patients out of bed, walking to the toilet, out of pyjamas into everyday clothes, but instead all ward staff getting involved! Imagine the difference @uhltherapy @Leic_hospital 💪🏼

In a survey by ⁦@thecsp⁩ at the end of 2022, physiotherapists reported a loss of rehabilitation space in more than 100 areas across the UK. In a follow-up survey in May 2023, 96% of respondents said the situation had stayed the same or worsened 😔 bgs.org.uk/Rehab

Why invest in rehabilitation? Check out the report that @GeriSoc produced, as discussed in this thread. Spoiler: it’s good value for money! bgs.org.uk/Rehab
Replying to @Trisha_the_doc
Why should we invest in rehabilitation? It improves lives, but also makes us less dependent on others as we age, so it reduces demand on the system. It saves money too! ⬇️⬇️

Was really touched to have been awarded this from @EkhuftAllAgeSGT this week - thank you to the SG team for all your support (and apologies for giving you so much work!) @TherapiesEKHUFT @janekent80
The recognition continues for #EKHUFT staff as we hunt down those who we missed on our ward walks during #AdultSafeguardingAwarenessWeek It's wonderful to keep sharing the love! @EKHUFT @LouiseStere

@RealSirTomJones please can you help me, an NHS hospital palliative care doctor, help a dying patient who has tickets to see you in Dec but very sadly will be too unwell to do so. A video message from you would make this fabulous woman’s day. Please DM me! Thank you! 🙏
