During his Critical Care rotation @dexter_physio completed an audit on Rehab Prescription compliance, the results of which prompted and instigated changes: ⬆️ mdt meeting frequency and prioritisation of this to meet NICE guidelines ✅️

One of the most interesting cases I’ve ever come across! 😊

[Medicine/Surgery Therapy Team SHH @MSTherapySHH1]

A few pages from a large personalised rehabilitation book created by our Team for one of our former ICU patients during his long stay in hospital. An invalulable resource to aid his memory, engage him in Therapy and provide source of stimulation during the day. #PT #OT #ICU

Proud to say I’ve passed the AIM course! Developed lots of awareness on management of acutely unwell patient. Had a simulation on assessing patient with ABCDE approach and using SBAR on handing over patient. Very useful for on call scenario 😊.
