Does anyone have a successful patient education delivery model for hip and knee replacements and fancy sharing? Currently we give our patients various leaflets and they attend a joint school presentation, but I'm not convinced this best meets their needs. @PhysioATOCP
@fionakellyhuh @carloprina@fizz_liz@EDHomerton@HUHOrthopaedics@Allonsy_SM@Lettydormandy @TheNaziaAhmad I don't think therapists need convincing, more reassurance as we do not prescribe braces, just fit based on neurosurg advice. But definately another facet to consider with an MDT review of spinal pathways.

Please spare a RT for all the Occupational Therapy staff who help so many people get home and live independently.
Some great contributions coming in for @AGILECSP AGILITY Journal Special COVID edition! Last couple of weeks before submission closes! Last opportunity to share your reflections and experiences of working during COVID. @thecsp
Start of the day for the last HEE innovations funded SIMPOT course at The HOMERTON Hospital. UCLP, Barts Health and Homerton AHP Simulation training in action! @Bartssim @NHS_HealthEdEng @HomertonSim@TheACPRC
Gusty 5km run on Wanstead flats this morning. Everytime I was running into the wind I had to tell myself it was easier because I was getting some PEEP, is that right?! #AHPsactive
We have a static B6 physio post on @NHSHomerton 'outstanding' elderly care unit. Opportunity to work with a fantastic MDT who are passionate about delivering high quality care to the older population.

@wood_eleanor Good question! The change is adding more detail to the pathway, job roles and national recommendations. Hoping this along with education will make it really clear what care the MDT should provide at each stage, so there is consistent achievement of gold standard care.
So excited to have launched the new hip fracture pathway - and to a packed room of @NHSHomerton staff and @csp colleague @Hartey_PainPT. Further teaching to come in the different clinical areas.

@NHSHomerton staff exciting times Hip fracture pathway launches officially on 20th Nov. The Surgery and #care of Older People team would love @NHSHomerton to join them at #Grandround to hear & talk about the exciting #NHS work that has been done.
The new norm is to manage people with multiple morbidity . We need to create a workforce who are versatile agile and able to manage diversity. Single disease guidelines need reviewing #Physio18
Our rehab assistant's have a key role to play in ensuring our patients recieve great care. Often they are the one's our patients open up to, so let's give them the skills to turn these conversations into meaningful goals @srt_homerton
Presentation DONE! It was great sharing the successes of @srt_homerton. Thanks to @naziaahmad2007 and @fizz_liz for support with presentation prep! Now to enjoy the rest of #physio18.
