Educational board game addressing dehydration in health & social care. Helps staff improve hydration for anyone receiving care and also for staff themselves.
During #COVID19 NHS staff still need ongoing training. Face-to-face is not always possible.
So, we have FREE 'serious' games to help staff improve knowledge via their phone. Bite-sized learning that offers a useful distraction. Please share https://t.co/BHZFmO0N8A
@FocusGames submitted a game to @kickstarter. It's called Game of Medieval life, it's great for a fun family game night! Travel back in time, when life was short and smelly! You can support the game by clicking the link below 😀

MT @evelynnewman17: Implications of dehydration: constipation, recurrent UTIs, confusion, headaches, irritability, falls. These are linked to poor quality of life and high costs of prescribing etc. Avoidable by drinking water @CathCalderwood1 https://t.co/NLXkP8Hcvd
Staff are equally vulnerable to dehydration at work. Scottish Dietititians in Care Homes survey of staff in 7 boards this summer showed on average only 41% are meeting daily fluid target😬 @CareInspect@scottishcare@FionaCMcQueen @BDAWorkReady We need to promote this more
