Great advice: check your personal GPS.. How does your experience and background influence your clinical practice, and is it in line with the evidence? @camillacdawson #trache

@jimmibruce makes a strong case for the role of OTs in ICU, with a fantastic picture representation of delirium as viewed by our patients 🤯

[@DrJackieMcRae @drjackiem]

Games have been developed for swallowing, inspiratory and expiratory training to support weaning @spronkosaurus @RecoveryICU
Can this engage patients more and improve outcomes?
