As therapists we become excited to see our patients up and in chairs ready for therapy. This helps us to devote more treatment time to the patient if they are already out of bed and ready to go.
Occupational Therapist
I get a lot of social workers and dietitians and pharmacists asking me to come in and just get the patient up so they can sit down and talk to them, and I have no problem doing that
Nurse
It is obvious the interprofessional team is invested in mobility! The nursing staff jump right in to assist with a transfer when I am not available.
Physiotherapist
This initiative really helps me to learn how to interact with and motivate the seniors to mobilize
Volunteer
The more we move our patients the easier it gets for everyone
Social Worker
Early mobility has helped my patient who has very limited short term memory. He is now being mobilized more than every before! Without MOVE this patient would have fallen through the cracks.
