[Katie the Dementia Friendly Physio🌈💚 @dementia_physio]

Physiotherapists are key in supporting older people to live well. We support people to maintain independence, a sense of self & remaining valued members of their community- as do OT’s, SLTs and Dietitians.

Please invest in your specialist #frailty AHPs!! https://t.co/nzSC4JB5Ba

Participants experienced diminishing drinking as an unfolding process that was part of overall decline. They all believed it to be detrimental. #hpm #hapc https://t.co/HGzbQzdSgA

To all AHP's have you ever had a chat/wanted to talk about climate change with a pt? If we made an accessible leaflet what would you want it to say?

Exciting news! We’re hosting our first networking event on Tuesday 13th September, 7-8pm BST.

We’d love to meet with anyone working in SLT (anywhere in the world!) who has an interest in sustainability, so we can share ideas and grow our network.

[Emeritus Professor Linda Worrall AM @aphasiologist1]

De-implementation of this practice of thickening fluids and modifying diets might free up some clinicians’ time for other patient priorities?

[SLT Susnet @SLTSusnet]

Here is a link to the first published paper on climate change and SLT. Well worth a read!
