Northern Irish cardiovascular exercise physiologist living and working in Salford. BACPR council member 🏋🏻‍♂️❤️

[Andrew Battersby @ExerciseAndrew]

This is a great insight into the past, present and potential future of CR in the UK! Couldn’t agree more about the importance of comprehensive Ax and then designing a programme that meets that pt’s goals, rather than trying to direct everyone towards a supervised exercise program

Listen to the latest episode of the Let’s Talk ICCPR podcast featuring Prof John Buckley!

Where Prof Buckley shares his inspiring journey in the field of cardiac rehabilitation and reflects on the impact of his tenure as President of the BACPR.

Back home after a really enjoyable and inspiring couple of days at #BACPR2024 conference! Bittersweet as my last one as a council member but looking forward to seeing everyone again next year in Glasgow!

[Andrew Battersby @ExerciseAndrew]

Great to hear so many “Norn Irish” accents (both presenters and delegates) at this year’s #BACPR2024 conference!

[Laura McGarrigle @TxPhysio]

Promised to share this after #BACPR2024 … managing emergencies in LVAD recipients. This is regarding management in a transplant centre but some background info for those who asked.

It is now the policy of the Government that our NHS is broken.

It will be the mission of my department, every member of this government, and the 1.4 million people who work in the NHS, to turn our health service around.

That work starts now.

[BACPR @bacpr]

A fantastic opportunity has opened for an ambitious, dynamic, and enthusiastic Exercise Practitioner to join the Cardiovascular Health and Rehabilitation Team at UCLH.

Members of our team in attendance at today’s @bacpr exercise professional group study day in Birmingham. They presented posters showcasing innovative work within our service and we look forward to them feeding back what they have learnt from the great array of speakers on the day

[Andrew Battersby @ExerciseAndrew]

@TxPhysio @bacpr @ACPICR @cardiacrehabuk @cardiac_rehab7 We used to ask them to rate their confidence to exercise in a simple likert scale as part of exercise assessment but have moved away from this to just using subjective questioning- this obviously this isn’t used for audit purposes but helps guide input.

[Andrew Battersby @ExerciseAndrew]

@TxPhysio @bacpr @ACPICR @cardiacrehabuk @cardiac_rehab7 I don’t know of any that are specifically related to confidence to exercise. Most teams will use HADs as part of NACR but this is not directly related to exercise. Patient activation measure (PAM) is a very good tool but again not specifically exercise related.

[Andrew Battersby @ExerciseAndrew]

Great to see roles like this emerging, and something I think will only continue to increase as the understanding of the unique skills and qualities of exercise physiologists grows! https://t.co/xcqKRdjJf9

[Andrew Battersby @ExerciseAndrew]

Great opportunity in a great team!
