Reduce hospital length of stay: Best practices in early mobility guidelines and programmes

Hospitalised patients who are immobile or have limited mobility are at risk of developing complications that negatively impact outcomes.
Early mobility can positively impact patient recovery. Did you know that a patient’s length of stay on average was two days shorter for those who implemented early mobility programmes, based on thirteen trials from the UK, Europe and Australia?

Many patient and hospital-related barriers to early mobility can be overcome through staff support and education, hospital protocols and communication, as well as the use of technology and appropriate medical equipment that support mobility. Equipment designed to meet the evolving needs of patients with innovations targeted at helping accelerate patient recovery combined with a progressive mobility programme, can all contribute to getting your most challenging patients better sooner.

At this upcoming webinar, three hospitals which have implemented early mobility programmes will be sharing the impact and results that they have witnessed, and share insights on how to start these programmes.
