Pathfinder has demonstrated that there is a safe alternative to ED conveyance for older people following low-acuity EMS calls. A model which could be spread, with local adaptation, nationally & internationally. Read this article by members of IFEM GEMSIG: ifem.cc/pathfinder

I hear #BeaumontHospital are shutting out-patient physio to improve patient flow. I'm glad I've my mortgage/car paid off. This feels like the worst of times. Corporate have gone rogue, no respect for frontline or patients. Stephen Donnelly Fórsa trade union Cllr T O'Leary Fine Gael

2/ This report helps shine a light on the gaps in stroke rehab delivery nationally with just 47% of patients receiving sufficient Physiotherapy (42% OT, 53% SLT).

3/ For patients with more severe/complex disability, we know from local audit that the amount of therapy they receive is often much less than this national average…. Complex stroke rehab requires greater no. of therapists to treat (+more time +/- a full fat coke on occasion😂)

5/ But not just stroke requires further HSCP investment… The National Stroke Audit captures about 50% of the responsibilities of our stroke physiotherapy team. Don’t forget the stroke mimics, FND, vestibular, outliers, support to other services etc.
