Congratulations to Worcester Masters student Andrew (R) previously a physio assistant at the QE on completing placement with excellence in 8/10 learning outcomes. Ready for a very well deserved break! Might have converted him to neuro physio 😁 Sheffield Uni "Prince Alfie of Alfrick" (L) has 4 weeks more on placement but is on target to qualify and again is very keen to work in neuro physio which is great news for everyone with Parkinson's, stroke, TBI, MS and spinal cord injuries

This preventative model could work well in rural Herefordshire and Worcestershire. During physio assessments we are continually finding pts with high blood pressure, osteoporosis etc which can lead to bigger problems such as strokes, heart attacks and broken hips

Tom Parker was treated in one of 70 harbour health clinics after breaking his fibula fishing at sea.
