Tom Underwood of NHS Horizons looks at the innovative partnership between the #SportEngland, @NHSEngland and @OHID on the Moving Healthcare Professionals Programme.
The initiative aims to embed physical activity within health systems to support people to stay healthy.

One option: support the ongoing transformation of gyms and pools into community hubs for people living with Long-term Conditions! - accessible, warm and close to home with NICE-approved physical activity interventions and personalised, inclusive care vimeo.com/805046886

We need to share this recently release video far and wide. The simple answer is if healthcare professionals attend parkrun themselves for the first time they will actively start signposting it for patients. Gain the benefits then signpost others

@ST_Transform #SolvingTogether can’t make it to the tweet chat this evening 😟 but thought the new ‘Swimming as Medicine’ film from @Swim_England and @zubaidihussain @rcgp might be relevant - encouraging HCPs to recommend aquatic activity patients 👏🏻

Grateful for opportunity to watch the recording from this morning’s #GMMoving Health Integration, design session. A great distillation of the learning so far & exploration of how we build on this collectively to integrate moving across the whole health system. #Beatingheart 💗

1. An essential must read editorial from @CMO_England @NHSEnglandNMD @HelenStokesLam @DrGregorSmith @CMOCymru. If you want to know why CVD prevention is an urgent priority, they explain it here. bmj.com/content/380/bmj.p201

I NEED YOUR HELP! I'm writing an article on physical activity for other healthcate professionals.
But I would love to discover people's opinion on WHY they undertake physical activity?
I don't want the science. I just want the primary reason you decide to get active?

‘A staggering 1 in 6 of the working population now report themselves as long term sick.’ This will impact on economic potential, says Andy Haldane in the 2022 #REALChallenge lecture.

A revolution is happening in quality improvement. The shift from "Quality 1.0" to "Quality 3.0" moves us from hitting standards to co-producing health. This paper (a work in progress) is open for comments: f1000research.com/articles/9… By @PeterLachman Paul Batalden @krisvanhaecht

No matter how many expert reviews we have of the NHS, it can only deliver decent care if we reduce demands. We need a massive shift to prevention, reducing health inequalities and helping people to be well and cope with life without needing the NHS. Clangers for all.

🧵1. Today is the start of the next phase of health integration @NHS_GM and around the country. In GM colleagues have been integrating physical activity with health and care in lots of different ways.
Here are a few of them and some things we're learning.

Health information is often not well understood to support self management. Check the ideas in #SolvingTogether related to supporting people waiting for hip and knee procedures
