As the Olympics came to an end, our Critical Care rehab team celebrated their colleagues who ran, walked and cycled the 368 miles from Swindon to Paris over the last few weeks. 👏

The team also supported patients to get involved with Olympic-themed exercises.💙

[Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust @GWH_NHS]

Rehabilitation is an integral part of recovery from critical illness.

Recently, our teams demonstrated their work through rehabilitation exercises such as grip strength and bean bag throwing.
