Assistive technology includes devices like prosthetic limbs and wheelchairs that help people perform tasks, enhance independence, and improve quality of life.

It's like a superhero sidekick that helps people, ranging from older people to those with disabilities, live their healthiest, most independent lives.

Honoured to present this simple poster about the work of MedSupplyDrive UK, a charity that delivered half a million protective equipment items to healthcare workers during the UK's COVID-19 peaks, @WestCamHub today. This story belongs to my fellow volunteers and to HCWs.

[Cambridge University @Cambridge_Uni]

Restless leg syndrome affects up to 1 in 10 older adults.

It causes an unpleasant and overwhelming urge to move your legs.

Scientists @DonorHealthBTRU have found over 140 new genetic risk variants - and say these may point to potential treatments.

Happy #ScoliosisAwarenessMonth! I have had the dual privilege throughout my life to (1) receive quality care since diagnosis and (2) make my patient voice heard in hospital, research, and arts settings. 💚 to all who have made that possible.
