25 yrs ago today I started a new job @UHBTherapy as a newly qualified physio. Didn’t think I’d still be here now! New building,a gazillion new colleagues, a pandemic &huge changes in practise. I’ve lived here longer than I’ve lived anywhere else but still a southerner at heart!

Great day today on the @MLSCourse Informative and practical!

Cycling through Australian countryside.. makes physio more fun! Yesterday is was Spain, Monday the Austrian Alps. #BiVAD #HeartTransplant @UHBTherapy @uhbtrust @Tx_VAD_physio Shared with consent.

Happy patient, happy day. Escaping ITU for a few mins.. walking with his #bivad and enjoying a rest to take in the ‘view’ It may be cold but the sun was shining! @UHBTherapy @UHBCriticalCare #Transplant Shared with consent.

It’s raining outside but inside we rehab! Made this patient’s day to be able to cycle with his BiVAD, to make him feel he is doing something “normal” @Tx_VAD_physio @UHBTherapy @UHBCriticalCare #OrganDonationWeek Shared with consent.

Inspiring and informative talks on delirium at #SOA23 today. Thank you @WesElyMD and @mark_borthwick (and Lou!) Lots to think about!

My kind of positive feedback 🙊 Always sad when our lovely band 6 physios rotate. They become part of the family!
