AGILE Member Questionnaire – Working with Exercise Professionals to Deliver Falls Prevention Exercise Programmes

AGILE appreciate our members are facing unprecedented circumstances. Should anyone wish to discuss membership fees in context of the financial situation they currently find themselves in (as a result of COVID19) please  contact AGILE at agile.membership@gmail.com . AGILE as a committee will consider each case individually.

Dear Delegates,

Thank you so much for showing interest in our 2020 study days. As you will understand, we have had to make the decision to cancel these in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and to ensure we adhere to government advice.

We are looking at ways to deliver the training, later on in the year, either through new study day dates, or via virtual media. We will keep you informed as soon as we have managed to rearrange the sessions, especially as currently the situation is still changing daily.

Your regional representatives will arrange reimbursement of any course fees already paid in due course. Please be patient as they are being impacted both professionally and personally by this situation as well.

Many thanks for your understanding.

The FLS Database Annual report 2020 provides the third national benchmark for the performance of FLSs at the patient level and shows that there has been an improvement in most key performance indicators (KPIs) but further work is needed for effective and efficient service delivery.

The standards of practice have been developed in response to wide variations in the provision of the learning disability physiotherapy across the UK. In response, the standards aim to improve and standardise the delivery and commissioning of specialist physiotherapy to adults with a learning disability.

Helping older people to remain healthier for longer is the business of all healthcare professionals, according to a new report
