Case studies

There are many ways to successfully integrate physical activity initiatives into routine clinical care. Here are a few ways we’ve used Moving Medicine resources to improve patient care across a range of settings. The more ideas we can share on successful case studies the quicker we can all help our healthcare systems develop so we’d love to hear from you and share your case studies here, so please get in touch.

Top Tips from healthcare professionals for getting the most out of Moving Medicine

Chris Tuckett, Physiotherapist

I particularly love the ‘I CAN’ poster which effectively communicates positivity and empowerment to all who see it, and it really does help overcome the natural tendency for hospital inpatients to remain in bed for far too long.

Scarlett McNally, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon

The “one-minute conversation” pages, for rapid motivational interviewing.  I recommend these to everyone in healthcare – doctors and other health professionals. I also recommend them to patients as it is great to have information by condition. It is much easier to convert the theory into practice if the patient thinks it really is aimed at them.
