This #NursesWeek, we’re celebrating the incredible impact our nurses have, every single day.
Because when nurses help patients get out of bed, they’re not just encouraging movement…
They’re reducing complications.
They’re restoring dignity.
They’re driving recovery forward. 💪

Meta-analysis shows every extra kg of lean mass cuts frailty odds ~5%.
Lift now—walk later.

Assessment of dizziness (including Dix-Hall pike) is due to be included in the updated NICE clinical guidelines for Falls!

How much strength do I need?
We need strength to do the things we need and want to do - on our own, everyday. The more strength we have, the more we can meet life's challenges without taking too much of a hit. It’s never too early or too late to start getting #STRONGERwithAGE
