Statistics released today, show the proportion of strokes that happen in people of working age has increased 20% in the last ten years. Stroke needs to have greater importance placed on it for there to be a step change in our approach to improvements. tinyurl.com/48z55sud

Thank you to @OrlaGrehan and the entire OT Team in UHG for a fantastic meeting. Excellent to learn about the off road elements performed by the team and to share our experiences of on-road assessments. Their obvious passion for the role and patient advocacy was clear to see.

As OT’s, after completing a comprehensive off-road assessment, we often recommend an on-road driving assessment to inform decisions around fitness to return to driving. 1/2
