Older adults in hospital spend up to 95% of their time in bed or in a chair, resulting in loss of muscle mass, strength and bone density, all of which increases their falls risk. Let’s prevent de-conditioning by encouraging safe mobility in our hospitals! #ELRS #Falls #Mobility

Temperatures are expected to dip down to -6 overnight 🥶🌡️ Please take care when you're out and about. Wintery conditions can lead to busier A&Es due to slips, trips, and falls. Try walking like a penguin and help keep yourself safe 🐧❤️

With the very cold weather this week, it's important that older people are prepared for winter. Keep stocked up with essential, long life items at home if getting to the shops is difficult. Check out our Store Cupboard Recipe Book for meal ideas ---> bit.ly/3FuBL80
