A new practice note supporting good postural care in services for adults and older people has been developed. We encourage staff, providers and visiting professionals to download it and use it within settings. The guidance on supporting good postural care outlines the benefits and why it is important. It is aligned with best practice and the NHS NES strategy produced in April 2023 which is available on Turas: Your posture matters, A strategic approach to taking care of it together.
The practice note also demonstrates how good postural support can meet the Health and Social Care Standards, as well as our quality themes and indicators. It also includes links to further information and resources.
