Feels a bit bittersweet to be sharing my old post, it's an absolutely lovely one for any physio with a passion for working with adults with (mostly progressive) neurological conditions in their own homes and communities.

“Even though we’re all experienced staff, we were overwhelmed by the reaction”

Our Physiotherapy Team at Meadowlands have introduced new games, such as basketball and ten pin bowling to aid patient recovery and bring variety to their time in hospital.

❓Question for Neuro/Disability/community Physios...

Can anyone point me in the direction of physio gurus in Postural Care / Contracture prevention & management in the UK or Ireland?

[Joy Cooper @JoyCoops]

Great to see updated NICE guidelines recognising the importance of rehabilitation following a stroke. Well done and thank you for your contribution @NicolaMoran8

[NICE @NICEComms]

People who have had a stroke should be offered additional rehabilitation, according to updated guidance from NICE.

New evidence suggests that a minimum of 3 hours of rehabilitation per day over 5 days should be provided.

It’s #WorldHeartDay 🫀 – let's spread the word to encourage more people to confirm their decision on the NHS Organ Donor Register.

Thanks to the kindness of donors and their loved ones, 207 hearts were transplanted last year in the UK to save lives.

Did you know that being discharged from hospital might save a life?

It allows the sickest patients to be admitted and treated appropriately.

Please work with us to help save more lives by making as many hospital beds as possible available to those most in need.

Social Vulnerability and Frailty in Hospitalized Older Adults. https://t.co/5DUhyUH7F3 Being socially vulnerable was associated with increased length of stay, having excess hospital days, and being discharged to long term care from hospital. Nice paper, led by @cm_jasmine
