I was recently asked about the cost effectiveness of our #NHSBroons campaign. The short answer is that the resource will have paid for itself if it prevents 3 falls with harm across Scotland.. only 3 AcademyOfFabStuff NHS Highland Brian Dolan OBE, RMN, RGN The Broons #EndPJparalysis #Falls

That's all for this year's Quality Forum Inspired, enthused and tired, it's time to go home. #Quality2024 ❤️

Pretty inspiring day Quality Forum. As a dedicated 'boat rocker', I particularly loved the session on creating a culture of creativity and new approaches to quality improvement. 😎

Although I'm visiting the Quality Forum to showcase the amazing ACRT work from Argyll and Bute HSCP I'm afraid I will be spamming any Scottish colleagues attending with our #NHSBroons patient information leaflet, sorry but that includes you Jason Leitch 😁

Want to know how we reduced referrals into orthopaedic services by almost 70% over the past year and improved access for our patients? Come and see me at the #Quality2024 conference in zone 4 poster board #381 and I'll tell you 😁 #realisticmedicine Argyll and Bute HSCP Centre for Sustainable Delivery

It can be shocking just how little attention is paid to mobility in hospital. Both at the start: no comment on how the person moves now. Silence on what they were like at baseline. How can we help people “get better” (or home) if we don’t know what better looks like for them?

Stephen Fry says 'I feel lucky to walk again' and backs Plymouth campaign for end to postcode lottery.

Shockingly, not all patients have access to rehabilitation.
