Wonderful to have a 100% attendance demonstrating how great enthusiasm by our staff. One key message - we know greater dosage (no. of reps) relates to greater recovery, and can be considerably increased through self practice and semi-supervised practice with same resource.
Great to have @strokeed in Edinburgh. 1000reps training with 50 rehab staff learning how to optimise physical outcome after stroke @CharlieChung90 @Tom75StrokeED . Promoting semi supervised and indep practice

Take a look at the positive impact that @CarlyRolOT is already making to the lives of older adults with cancer. Particularly in the outpatient setting, supporting them to live at home, as independently, active and happy as possible 👇
Some amazing work done at the Beatson last month for our #activewards month. Raising awareness of the shared responsibility to keep our patients active in hospital @DrJulietHarvey @ErinW20physio

Strength training confers unique health benefits.
Engaging in strength-promoting exercise was linked with:
- ⬇️ 23% reduction in all-cause mortality
- ⬇️ 31% reduction in cancer mortality
Meeting both aerobic and muscle strengthening guidelines further reduced mortality risk versus meeting the aerobic guidelines alone.

Please share widely 📢. Would be great to get some AHP input and as always patient thoughts would also be incredibly valuable. @LesleySomervil3 @OTjcameron @judith_rennie – at Renfrew, Scotland
