On behalf of some people today feeling low😉.I am not generic I did not study the profession of generic, my set of skills are unique, I can personalise to the individual. I see the ‘person’ and what matters to them. I am an asset to the team. I am an Occupational Therapist.

Interesting read. As a team we are gradually getting our service up and running again. Having to adapt in a changing world and continuing to have patients at the forefront of our minds. @LPTnhs @GeriSoc #fallsprevention #falls

This festive season, #CheckIn on friends, neighbours and relations that live alone.

#Loneliness and #isolation can lead to #depression which can cause a decline in physical health. #ReachOut if you think someone needs a friend. Loneliness can – and does – affect anyone. #AGEUK

@LouWragg @wfawzi @DrAmarShah @tracy11836237 @FallsKent @elht_on @Daniela99383823 @CarmelStevens15 Multifactorial assessment is also key. Identifying risk factors and giving staff advice and confidence to do something about them. It is the simple things that are most effective.
