Occupational Therapists (OTs) help people get back to doing what is important in their lives following an injury or during illness. Our Associate Director for the Allied Health Professions met with our wonderful OTs to celebrate their work and discuss patient needs. #OTWeek2024

Older people with acute illness decondition rapidly so need rehabilitation to start as soon as possible – healthcare professionals should not wait for a crisis to pass before providing rehabilitation at home, hospital, or care home. https://t.co/LP2fftpV7m #BGSRehab #RightoRehab

The ideal day to land a joint CRA letter to all party leaders! “It is vital that rehabilitation forms a core part of NHS future planning. The next government must make a commitment to rehabilitation as an equal pillar of health care to medicines and surgery. #RightToRehab
