This is truly what it’s all about! ‘The OT gave me little hints and tips’ was my favourite bit, and just goes to show that it can be those little things that can have the greatest impact! #OTweek24 💚 #powerofOT 🔋

"#FallsPrevention is often associated with risk-averse attitude whereby people are discouraged from mobilising so they do not fall, consequently becoming deconditioned, increasing fall risk"
