Happy #OTweek2020 to all the wonderful #OTs. Don’t know where we’d be without your amazing ability to make the impossible possible! Our fantastic Front Door OTs assist in admission avoidance and early intervention. Couldn’t do it without them! @NHSGGCnorthAHP @NHSGGCOTS @GRI_ED

Thank you @NHSGGC Medical Illustrations for producing this great word cloud for our departments. This was compiled with feedback the Medical and Front Door Team received from redeployed staff and patients during the initial COVID pandemic. Well done all @Ahpscot @NHSGGCnorthAHP

AHPs making an impact at front door by supporting flow and turning patient around, avoiding downstream admissions. Our GRI AHP team assessed 229 patients during May 2019 and supported 70 discharges home! @AnnRossahp @6EAScot @CRLAN63
