@DrRJSimpson @NHSForthValley These walking aids are collected, checked and those fit for repurpose are cleaned and re-issued. It has been a hugely successful system which has cut down on the need to buy new walking aids thus saving NHS forth valley money.

@thefallguyUK @acpivr @SynnottEoin @EdTankPhysio @susannahcorbet3 @suharkin @JoinJudith Really enjoyed the course and got so much out of it - looking forward to putting it into practice. Thank you!

@scotrefcouncil Whenever I click on the link it says server not found. I'm not sure if it's an issue my end or with the link. Is there another way?

@Teesbeesandcees Grandma always liked her on countdown. I say almost single handedly going after the corrupt government is on a par to the approval of Patricia J Mc!

@_dawnwillbreak I think the confusion is the difference between occupation health and occupational therapy. You could potentially self refer yourself to occupational therapy depending on which area of Glasgow you are in. https://t.co/m0FvDi4Q1B

@physiotalk I don't think anyone in our community service feels we are delivering the rehab we want or that patients deserve. Too often we feel we are fire frightening to prevent admission, or carrying out work on behalf of other services. Long waiting lists not helping #physiotalk

@fnd_me strategies and improving the care we give (which is incredibly variable)

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@fnd_me Well done! I just realised you must be in the same year as my friend Kat. I know you'll be exhausted after a week of placement but when you're able would you mind if I chatted to you about your FND experience. I'm a physio who is really passionate about improving our treatment..

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@guardiannews If hotels are being used as care facilities then surely that's to relief the pressure from care providers and not the NHS. If you purely require a care package then you don't need the NHS surely.

@DeclanOKane92 @william_cuham @ChrisGreenNews What would your exit strategy be out of this? I appreciate you dislike vaccines and dislike lockdowns, so just curious as to what your alternative would be?

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

We've been identified as a "cluster" and have been told to ensure social distancing but given the space we work in, it's extremely difficult

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@jasonleitch Community therapists with an office base that makes social distancing near on impossible -would the government advice be masks in the office? Many thanks for all your hard work

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@AvrilKilkelly @Maybemayo @AdamMeakins Thank you, it's at least something I can raise with our managers to explain there is some merit to our concerns. Hope you guys are coping ok down there -good luck!

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@AvrilKilkelly @Maybemayo @AdamMeakins Can I ask which trust you are please @AvrilKilkelly? We are having the same thought process in the community (seeing only urgent patients to prevent hospital admissions). Being inches from their face and mobilising with questionable PPE is making us nervous!

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@SpillaneBrid Really helpful thread and thank you for link to guidelines re CPAP in covid.

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@StirlingCouncil @scotgov If myself (a physio redeployed to acute hospital) and partner (a doctor) didn't qualify for a place, can I ask what criteria did qualify?

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@DavieBoy79 @N1JYX @chris_sutton73 You have summer clubs to put kids into over summer. Plus families divide up their annual leave to provide care for holidays. This is not the same.

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@TheBabyExpert The disparity is because education is a devolved power.

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@BBCRadio2 @theJeremyVine If the Queen can give an actual solution to this absolute mess then jump on in hen. Otherwise your words are useless. There is no common ground, we are completely polarised.

[Lucy @lucymcf84]

@lisaed92 I'm in awe of you!
