The @NUH_Therapies team engaged in a team building session at the end of June, where we discussed how we live the @NHSBartsHealth values, the behaviours we promise never to exhibit, and some new values-based commitments for the future. Feeling inspired😃

SLTs and the wider MDT use the @iddsi_org framework to describe the modified foods and thickened fluids we may recommend to patients with dysphagia. This framework ensures recommendations are clear and standardised- have a look at the framework: #NHWeek #SwallowAware2023 @RCSLT

Today is Swallowing Awareness Day 2023! We have lots of activities planned today to help spread awareness of dysphagia (the medical term for eating, drinking & swallowing difficulties). Keep your eyes peeled to see what we get up to throughout the day 👀 #SwallowAware2023 @RCSLT

😍 this afternoon's VF clinic was 💯 high emotions, rewarding and satisfying for all! Findings meant we're able start oral intake for one patient after many weeks & gave options for management in the community for another - what a way to start the week! ✨ ✨

Replying to @NewhamSLT
This is part of a bigger piece of QI work in Newham SLT. We have lots of exciting ideas for making our service as excellent as it can be! 1) 1/2 day training for nurses and HCSWs in August - 108 signed up so far! 2) Phone call at 11 to discuss SLT sesh at medical induction 🤞
