Occupational therapy students at @OT_UEA have been trying out prosthetic legs, to understand better the experience of people they may work with in the future. 💚

Temperatures are expected to dip down to -6 overnight 🥶🌡️
Please take care when you're out and about. Wintery conditions can lead to busier A&Es due to slips, trips, and falls.
Try walking like a penguin and help keep yourself safe 🐧❤️

Chuffed that electric blanket safety was on @ITVCentral tonight and I *totally* appear for about seven seconds (see 👇👀)
Sadly the #OccupationalTherapy and #health message wasn't included in the edit ... so I'm sharing here instead!

Hot topic lined up for tonight’s @ITVCentral with myself and @JournoChar . Electric blankets. Very cheap way to keep warm… but there are safety warnings. One of us is an electric blanket fan, the other despises them. But which is which?
A really interesting lecture this evening all about Professor Shareen Forbes' research (both past and present) into islet transplantation. Even better that it was online so I could watch it from the bus on the way home.

Men aged 65 are invited for a one-off simple ultrasound of the abdomen (tummy) to detect a AAA. Treating a AAA early greatly reduces the chance of it causing serious problems.
It could save your life.

Thanks to Lyndsey for a really informative talk on delirium today. Definitely generated discussion within our team and future plans for discussions to continue with regards to 4AT and our assessment of cognition/impact on function.
