Through challenging times, we have shown MSK Physio can still thrive!
Some amazing successes reported by our team during our first Big Staff Meeting since the start of the pandemic!
#BetterNeverStops
To all of our amazing colleagues, Happy #AHPsDay! 🎉
So proud of the achievements of all our team & @WhitHealth AHPs in 2020!
Our physios have helped on ICU & wards, deep cleaned, given flu vaccines, & now back in their day jobs adapting to new ways of working! 👏
#AHPsDay2020
@Orgle9@WhitHealthMSK Thank you for looking after me! Somehow you managed to look after all of your patients and make sure I was ok!! You’re a hero. Can’t wait for a reunion party 💙❤️
The intensive care staff have been amazing at supporting our physios while we helps out on ICU!
Here one of the anasethetics Drs is giving a quick crash course on everything breathing, cardiology and more!

Distraction techniques on my day off include making a list of things that our redeployed MSK physio’s are becoming more competent with and clinical skills they’ve picked up whilst trying to support our amazing @WhitHealth ITU team:
- hourly obs
- Taking ABG’s
- Taking blood
- Repositioning patients
- Personal care, including brushing someone’s teeth around a ventilator tube
- Yanker and deep closed circuit suction
- Changing NG feeds
- Eye care
- Subglottic aspiration
Enormously proud of all @WhitHealth staff for going above and beyond to save lives.
This epidemic highlights how deeply the cuts of the past 10 years have affected our vital services.
To those who can, please support our fabulous local hospital:
