This program gives you hope as a patient that you will get better and recover... I feel more positive and aware of myself and what my body can do!
Older Adult Patient
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 units have identified mobility champions...this is creating dialogue and consistency among the interprofessional team
Nurse
The sooner I get moving the sooner I go home.
Older Adult Patient
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.
