Returning to work after a major trauma can be a complex, difficult decision. Pain management, ongoing treatment, psychological recovery and financial problems all add to making the right decision. We are hands-on help. @TNLComFund

Supporting patients after major trauma and brain injury is our specialty. Our multi skilled team provides those in hospital often at the worst time of their lives, with finance, legal, housing support and a listening ear. https://t.co/opb19oGzP3 @HeadwayPreston @LancsHospitals

[MTPSS Central Lancashire @MTPSSCL]

Housing is often a concern for major trauma patients particularly if they were homeless or had no permanent home prior to injury. Our service can help with referrals for temporary housing upon leaving hospital.

@mtw_rph @bamber_liz @LancsHospitals So are you 💙

[MTPSS Central Lancashire @MTPSSCL]

Great result for one of our major trauma patients 11 months post accident. From zero points and no award, to an award of PIP daily living at a tribunal today. Providing financial stability to help cope during rehabilitation 💙👏👏
Good work @bamber_liz

The Major Trauma Patient Support Service emergency fund is supporting patients who have no access to funds or are on a low income and require emergency items while in hospital in Preston. Contact us if you or your patient needs our help. https://t.co/2l9sLvvjxP

[MTPSS Central Lancashire @MTPSSCL]

We see patients who have severe mental health problems before and after their major trauma injury.

Would you know how to speak to a person contemplating suicide?

A good resource and training course online here: https://t.co/JlL3dbGh7A

Watching the One Show tonight about male suicide. ‘Ask your friends if they are ok, then ask if they are ok again’.
Many MT patients are suicide attempts that have failed and they have been saved and need our help, everyone’s help. 💙 @BBCTheOneShow
