Congratulations to the Fragility Fracture Team at UHS for adapting our working model during COVID-19 and being recognised by the Royal College of Physicians. Exciting times for a developing service at UHS. @UHSFT@uhs_bones@RoyalOsteoSoc@RCP_FFFAP#osteoporosis#bonehealth#FLS
@ElhtLiaison have you continued your service over the past few months? I would be interested to chat with you if possible as I'm thinking of ways we can develop our service and continue whilst not running clinics etc!
Never take for granted the ability to hold your loved ones hand! Today we orchestrated reuniting a couple in their 80s for lunch, as a therapeutic intervention we made the husband mobilise to his wife (his main carer). #uhs#medicinefortheolderperson#mop#rehabcovid19#physiowin
@RCP_FFFAP Amazing booklet and provides a secondary intervention for patients where possible, and their families, to digest information provided at their own pace. So often as clinicians we will provide verbal advice and reassurance but due to many factors we are not always effective.
To all our supporters, volunteers and anyone who's raised awareness about bone health and osteoporosis... We just want to say that we love you - right down to your bones! #ValentinesDay2020
Important that we are all aware of the impact of decisions we make about our lifestyles and medical care on our future bone health. #letstalkaboutbones
Women can lose up to 20% of their bone density following the menopause.

@Michael15254702 I am in a similar position. I am mid treatment and got a text last week to say please book in your next appointment as your aligners have arrived but now I am unable to book an appointment or get in contact with them. Literally no idea what to do or what's going on!
There's now over 7,000 of you following us on Twitter! Thank you for continuously helping us to raise awareness of #bonehealth. Together, let's build a future without #osteoporosis😃🎉
