It's #PurpleTuesday and we're helping to raise awareness for accessibility and inclusion for everyone!
People are entitled to equal opportunities and access in all parts of their lives, from out and about to online, over the phone and technology. Together we can keep breaking barriers and implement social change through legislation and connection 🤝. #Inclusion #accessibility #DeafblindAwareness 💜

Fantastic response from GPs & pharmacists for our research on prescribing for older people with sensory impairments! We still need nurse prescribers. If you are an independent prescriber for 65+ in primary care, join us! Your input is invaluable. Details in the flyer. ⬇️

Many thanks to the GPs and Pharmacists who have generously contributed to my interview study thus far. It would be great to hear from Nurse Prescribers and other healthcare professionals, who are willing to enhance health outcomes for older people with sensory impairment.
