Survivors have suffered for too long, this report must be a catalyst for change
New report out today! A review of the quality of rehabilitation care after an ICU admission: ncepod.org.uk/2025icur.html @Davido744 @BACCNUK @ICS_updates @theRCOT @thecsp @BDA_Dietitians @rcgp @RCSLT @FICMNews @ICUsteps @UKCCNA @RCoANews @GeriSoc @HQIP
It’s great to hear from colleagues nationally that in response to the @NCEPOD report findings and recommendations they have now been able to add #ICURehab to the trust risk register. Such an important step towards improving care for survivors of critical illness
The Council of Deans of Health is pleased to share a new report that sets out an ambition to increase the number of clinical academic #nursing, #midwifery and allied health professionals in the UK over the next five years by 50%. Read the report here: bit.ly/4noEZ13
#SOA25 Day 2 with the NCEPOD, Key take away messages “Who’s advocating rehab across the whole patients story and how?” “How are you going to make it count” “Measure what you do because it’s probably not what you think”
#SOA25 Critical care rehabilitation leaves a legacy but the patients story doesn’t stop there and neither should rehabilitation. Collaboration and joined up thinking is the future for critical care survivorship for patients and their families #NCEPOD #Lizzieallen
Looking forward to presenting the @NCEPOD report ‘Recovery beyond survival’ at the @ICS_updates #SOA25 #ICURehab @CfCExcellence @nhsuhcw @covcampus
