Abstract

Care homes have poor access to physiotherapy and occupational therapy, and consequently staff can be unaware of basic rehabilitation techniques. A workshop was devised to enable staff to learn simple strategies to improve and maintain residents' mobility and activity. This article describes its design, content and delivery.
