(As launched at the KHP Improving Care for the Armed Forces community conference in June 24) Until then, we rely on our Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust & Royal Brompton and Harefield hospitals staff to ask the question, record on Epic and refer to the AF team for an additional offer of bespoke advice and support, for both patient and their immediate family. #armedforcescovenant #armedforcescommunity #veteranaware

Register here: https://lnkd.in/evKkvyRF Prosthetics and Orthotics Insight Day Quote from Mark Ormrod MBE: “Using high level skills and expertise my Prosthetist allowed me to live as full a life as possible and beyond following my life changing injuries. Through a combination of technical skills, care, and compassion they understood my needs and wants. Their support has allowed me to achieve beyond my own expectations”. Prosthetics and Orthotics Insight Day An Introduction to Prosthetics and Orthotics as a career. Working as a Prosthetist or Orthotist is a wonderfully diverse, varied, and secure career. If you are interested in problem solving, design and engineering, and helping people it may be the job for you. At this insight day you will learn who Prosthetists and Orthotists are, what they do, and the different routes you can take to become a Prosthetist/Orthotist. Prosthetists and Orthotists and prosthetic and orthotic students with an armed forces background will share their real life experience of transitioning from the armed forces into the prosthetic and orthotic workforce and there will be an opportunity for you to talk to universities who run prosthetic and orthotic degree programmes and apprenticeships to find out further information on the university and how you can access their prosthetic and orthotic programmes. Graduation from any of these programmes will provide you with a dual qualification enabling you to practice as either a prosthetist or an orthotist or you may choose to practice as both in a dual role. Wed, 4 Dec 2024 09:15 - 12:15 We look forward to having you attend the event!
