#MondayMovementMotivation The key to preventing deconditioning in hospital is simple. Make sure patients are out of bed, dressed in their own clothes, and independent with their activities of daily living. It is everyone’s role to #PreventHAD #MovementIsMedicine

We are excited for this one 🙌🏽

If exercise was a pill, wouldn’t everyone want to have it? That is one of the basis of our national campaigns around #Deconditioning and #ReconditionTheNation Elective & Emergency Care Improvement Support Team British Geriatrics Society. It helps frail older people immensely.

#EatDrinkDressMove to prevent Deconditioning 👇🏼

It's officially July, which means our #EndPJparalysis Global Summit is just around the corner! The perfect time to share this ..

If you haven’t already… SIGN UP! A fantastic event that shares best practice in deconditioning prevention 💪🏼 We are privileged to be a part of this and also learn from our colleagues far and wide 🙌🏽 See you soon 😊

Fantastic research that continues to support the importance of activity within the acute and community hospital setting. You can’t go wrong getting strong 🙌🏽💪🏼

You can’t go wrong getting strong… 💪🏼

Take a listen 👇🏼!

Every step literally counts. The benefits of weight-bearing alone provides significant benefits to muscle and bone strength, cardiovascular system, proprioception, sensation, cognition… the list goes on. Movement is medicine 💪🏼

"#FallsPrevention is often associated with risk-averse attitude whereby people are discouraged from mobilising so they do not fall, consequently becoming deconditioned, increasing fall risk" BGS #FallsAwarenessWeek Blog via Alasdair MacRae & Lisa Alcock bgs.org.uk/blog/celebrati…

"Don't stop moving: optimising safety while staying active in hospital is the sixth annual report of the continuous National Audit of Inpatient Falls" rcp.ac.uk/improving-care…

Remember acute incontinence is not all a bladder problem. Delirium, drugs, deconditioning can all cause acute incontinence

Great to see the promotion of activity and mobility to prevent deconditioning listed in British Geriatrics Society’s 12 actions to help manage winter pressures! Prioritising activity promotion through #EatDrinkDressMove #EDDM will proactively combat Frailty and Deconditioning💜 @theEDDMpodcast

It’s been a while… But the fight for prevention continues! Back University of Essex working with BSc and MSc AHP’s to critically think and evaluate how we can prevent hospital-acquired deconditioning. #PreventDeconditioning #EndPjParalysis #ReconditionTheNation
