Roll up! Another fabulous FREE webinar is headed your way! Join us at the end of the month to hear all about engaging the MDT in preventing hospital-associated deconditioning. Book here: tinyurl.com/MDTEngagement

Chris Whitty - living well in old age, physiotherapy has a vital role in adding life to years and, where possible, years to life. This is something that the physiotherapy profession has recognised and is adapting our training to.

Join the next AGILE East webinar to hear how we’re trying to prevent hospital associated deconditioning for older adults in the acute setting, the importance of engaging the whole MDT and how to empower the current and future workforce of registered and non registered staff💙

Next Friday, November 10th at 10am EST the Auditory-Vestibular Medicine International Board is hosting a vestibular update zoom webinar. Healthcare professionals can register for free by emailing [email protected].

Did you know that on average, a vestibular patient sees 5-7 doctors before being diagnosed? Visit vestibular.org/toolkit to find a guide to becoming your own healthcare advocate and finding your way to an accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Please please can therapy staffing for older adults on inpatient hospital wards be sufficiently resourced - it would make a MASSIVE difference to the flow of patients by preventing hospital acquired deconditioning and thus the reliance on community services. #MedTwitter

No physio is too senior (nor too junior). All physios have a responsibility to educate.

What a stark statistic.

I would hope that the increase in older people is mirrored by an increase in specialist services both to help older people age well and to intervene when they need assistance. #RightToRehab

The #physiotalk tweetchat on Mon 23rd October at 8pm BST will be on the #RightToRehab
All welcome to join in and discuss the state of our rehabilitation services - do you think they are they fit for purpose?

2/2 While the rehab workforce is stretched, more physios are being trained, more want to train-the NHS needs to focus is workforce planning on rehab to meet these recommendations & deliver the outcomes patients deserve bbc.co.uk/news/health-67…

Watching our rehab staff dwindle as demand grows and benefit is evidenced…smh. Dave Johnson

Does anyone else working in older adults care feel completely disrespected by other specialities?I worked in msk and Ortho and never experienced this. Genuinely -why is working within frailty and older adults not seen as something worthwhile and wonderful? 😞 #medtwitter #frailty

Really significant that this is a NICE recommendation as cost effectiveness as well as clinical evidence is considered. 3 hrs/day, 5days/week is the recommended rehab post stroke 1/2 bbc.co.uk/news/health-67…
