24-Hour care: the person centred approach
Join us for an upcoming webinar exploring the theme of person-centred care through a truly multidisciplinary lens. This engaging session brings together a panel of experienced clinicians and specialists to share their perspectives on what person-centred care means in practice.
Featuring Occupational Therapists Nicola Murphy and Jayne Brewer, Tissue Viability Nurse Sarah Thompson, and Accora Product Specialists Dean Curson and Tom Waplington-both formerly practising physiotherapists- this webinar offers a unique opportunity to hear from a diverse range of professional voices.
Through an open and interactive discussion, our speakers will explore how person-centred care is understood and applied across different roles and settings, offering practical insights that attendees can take back into their own practice.

Prescribing seating for cognitively impaired users: exploring the risks
When prescribing seating, our aim is to meet the needs of the service user by prescribing a chair that will provide the right level of support, enable safe, easier assisted or independent transfers, reduce risk of pressure injuries and enable them to obtain and maintain a good sitting posture in the provided chair. However when a service user has a cognitive impairment and has poor risk awareness, additional risks are present. In this session we aim to outline some of these possible additional risks and how to overcome them to ensure the service user and their carers/family remain as safe as possible when the service user is seated in a chair that is there to meet their needs.
