Job Vacancy – Postural Stability Instructor with Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust
Dawn Skelton has been working closely with AgeUK for some years on falls awareness campaigns and exercise booklets, but recently, Age UK have pulled together experts to summarise what’s known in their area of research about this ‘4th generation’ and set out their advice. These summaries have been collated into a readable, informative book, aimed at professional audiences about what we need to know and do In relation to the oldest old, based on latest research evidence. It’s a ‘must-read’ for anyone who works with or on behalf of the oldest old, including civil servants, national politicians, local councillors, GPs, nurses, care home managers and workers, social workers, carers and care workers, charities. . . the list could go on…
Dawn has drawn on some of her research and that of Dr Seb Chastin and Dr Margaret Grant here at GCU, to contribute to a summary on Minimising Sedentary Behaviour.
