When I am getting report on a patient I have not yet nursed, the mobility level tells me right away what my patient can do and I can get my patient moving
Nurse
The patient looked brighter when she started to walk and slowly become more confident. She sat in the chair by the hallway looking much better
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
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
The sooner I get moving the sooner I go home.
