Health is not a medical issue, it’s a social & political issue. If we want 2 enhance health & wellbeing we need 2 relocate authority from the institutional world of programmes & services to living communities where interdependence is found.

Quality of rehab services should be monitored & this intelligence should be used to continually improve services. Quality indicators should acknowledge personalised goals & recognise delay of further decline may be a realistic goal for some. bgs.org.uk/rehab #BGSRehab

Senior leadership is critical for a strategic & sustainable approach to planning & delivering #rehabilitation for older people. Systems should identify a senior officer or non-executive Board member with a specific role in assuring equitable access. bgs.org.uk/rehab
