Our research presented at WP2025 Tokyo:

- Other health professions don't recognize our role
- Resource scarcity compromises patient care
- Other professionals (and also patients) don't understand our scope of practice
- Many who need physiotherapy can't get it
- Lack of proper accreditation systems

Many Congratulations to our founding Chair @darrenabrown on this marvellous recognition for his outstanding work in the HIV and LongCovid fields.
Very well deserved.
Thank you for all that you have done for our LC community 🙏🎖️
Yesterday was the most incredible experience, receiving my #OBE from the #King #royalfamily at #buckinghampalace with my loved ones.

The day was spectacular and full of lifetime memories.

'Sadly, long wait lists and limited access to physiotherapy, due to staffing shortages and shortages of suitable rehab spaces are causing irreversible harm.'

94% of paediatric physiotherapists are concerned about their patients accessing the rehab treatment they need.

I've been working on a thing with a very talented group, many of whom with lived experience with Long Covid. I'm honored for the chance to help curate their work in a special place to share their findings and tell their stories. Coming in January 2025 to the Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy Journal.

Authors found the Time to Walking Independently after STroke (TWIST) prediction tool more accurately predicted independent walking than physiotherapists at 4, 6, or 9 wks post-stroke. The prediction tool may be useful for early rehab & discharge planning. 🧠🔄 🧠📈 🧪
