This resonates with the APCP MSK Committee's experience. CYP with MSK injury and illness are being failed by the lack of CYP strategy.
'Sadly, long wait lists and limited access to physiotherapy, due to staffing shortages and shortages of suitable rehab spaces are causing irreversible harm.' 94% of @TheAPCP members surveyed raised concerns about patients' access to rehab. #RightToRehab

Sad times and a reality for some children with MSK issues. I wonder if we would see adults waiting that long? 🫣 @SuzanneGrayPT @lucy_allinson @RhiannonJoslin @christiniedougl @thecsp

As children and young people highlight through @RCPCH_and_Us transformation must be underpinned in the context of two fundamental principles from the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. #RCPCHBlueprint

We recognise meaningful change for child health must go beyond current services. Underpinning our blueprint is a call for ambitious action to prevent illness and address the wider determinants of health with a child health in all policies approach. #RCPCHBlueprint

Our #RCPCHBlueprint makes the case for change for child health services. Under seven themes, we set out a series of detailed and intersectional recommendations that would have a transformative impact on the health system and children. 👇

Child health outcomes are poor, there is worsening access to services, and a growing inequality between adults and children’s healthcare. Our blueprint sets out evidence-based and practical recommendations for the UK government to improve child health services. #RCPCHBlueprint

Hopefully children can be put to the forefront of care especially in the MSK world. @angiejphysio @TheAPCP @SuzanneGrayPT @mbailey87
Far too often and for far too long, the needs of our children and young people have been overlooked by national policymakers. Today we publish our blueprint for transforming child health services in England. đź§µ#RCPCHBlueprint

Today we are debunking the myth that if you ask someone about suicide, it will put the idea in their head and make them more likely to die by suicide. In actual fact, it is safer to ask about suicide than not to ask. Research shows it is not dangerous to ask.❤️ #AskNowSaveLives
