What they say

“

It was so interesting to meet and network with colleagues and to find out about all the latest research and best practice and to share ideas. I work in the community with lots of other Allied Health Professionals. It’s been very inspiring to think about how we can spread the word and engage more of our professional colleagues in rehabilitative palliative care.

I love the new model because it’s really bringing rehabilitative care to the fore, not just for AHPs but for everyone working in health and social care. It’s up to us though to show our nursing colleagues how it can slot into their work.

The workshops were really thought provoking. I particularly liked the session about how volunteers and patients can work really effectively running workshops with fellow patients and benefit from finding a role for themselves.

We’re in a period of transition at the moment having closed our day service at the start of the pandemic. So being able to learn how others have been taking on leadership in their roles as AHPs has been inspiring as we consider the changes we will implement.

Hearing about and seeing the visuals of the new model for rehabilitative palliative care really helped to get me thinking about how we can implement it in a highly pressurised and busy setting like the acute hospital I work in. It really helped me to understand how I could start to change hearts and minds. We can all own it in our own way. It doesn’t matter what your profession is, there’s something for us all to connect with. That’s a really powerful message.

It’s been so wonderful listening to inspirational people from the world of rehabilitative palliative care and hearing how they implement it in practice. Just being around colleagues who are doing it is inspiring. Just hearing small tips for influencing change and implementing the model is very helpful and gives us all hope that we can develop it ourselves as AHPs and bring everyone else along with us.
