📉 Fewer falls = fewer A&E visits. Group rehab programmes for older adults can cut serious falls by up to 30% – easing the pressure on ambulance crews and hospital beds. #RightToRehab #RehabAwarenessWeek

💪 Patients gain more independence – and more years at home. With rehab, patients spent 10 fewer days in hospital per year. That’s time, money and dignity saved. #RightToRehab #RehabAwarenessWeek

This week is #RehabAwarenessWeek! 💷 Rehab is an investment. Every £1 spent on physiotherapy-led falls prevention saves the NHS up to £2.28 in wider benefits – including fewer emergency visits. #RightToRehab

As we celebrate #WorldPTDay, it's important to debunk myths about healthy ageing to empower informed health decisions. By dispelling these myths and embracing facts, individuals can take steps towards healthy ageing and enjoy a fulfilling life as they grow older.
