Good hydration is important for all and something for everyone to consider. Dehydration can be the cause of illness and can impact patient health. Our National Hydration campaign raises awareness of the signs of poor hydration and the potential consequences. #NHWeek

Breakfast time! Some options were: overnight oats with yoghurt and fruit purΓ©e, cereal soaked in milk and fruit smoothies. We noticed that it took a long time for cereal to soften - we also had to watch out for excess milk due to L1 fluidsπŸ₯£ #SwallowAware2023 #mySLTday #teamRAH

#SwallowAware2023 Raising awareness of the challenges people with swallowing difficulties face on a daily basis.
