Deconditioning is a harm hidden in plain sight. It may be 10 or 100 times more prevalent than falls or pressure ulcers.
In this episode of “Walk and Talk Improvement” we discuss how through deconditioning, we are unintentionally “killing patients with kindness”. Our three guests are nursing leaders who are spearheading social movements across the world to help prevent deconditioning and encourage us to invest in our older selves.
Featuring:
- Professor Brian Dolan, OBE, Director, Health Service 360
- Deirdre Lang, Director of Nursing/National Lead for Older Persons Services, Office of the Nursing and Midwifery Services Director, Health Services Executive
- Caroline Lecky, Nurse Consultant for Care homes, Public Health Agency, Northern Ireland.
Hosted by:
Dr Maureen Flynn, Director of Nursing with the National Quality and Patient Safety and the Office of Nursing and Midwifery Services Director, Health Services Executive.
