Monday morning on L5…. Bedside tennis, seated football and lots of chat and reminisce. Also some nice feedback from a patient “I would like to knit some items for the hospital. My mood has been lifted whilst here, I will be sad to go” #activities @deborahcarr1984 @ExpTeamNCA

One of ward L5 patients enjoys knitting. She told me knitting helps her hands and she has already made a speedy start on making bed socks. #creative #activities #motorskills #fun #cognition #preventingdeconditioning @deborahcarr1984
