Great teams meeting today working on a very exciting project #physiotherapy #eatingdisorders @KateBro88080231 @Annapaterson8 @PhysioSamMcIver @PhysiosinMH

[Kate Brown @KateBro88080231]

This map represents the very limited areas in the UK that have Physiotherapy as part of eating disorder services.
Not very many dots are there 😕
Physio must be commissioned equally alongside other professions as part of the MDT.
Any other ED physios out there pls get in touch!!
