We're supporting Legs Matter Week! There are too many patients in the UK with leg and foot conditions who are not being treated adequately or in time and, as a result, they are being harmed. The Legs Matter campaign is all about seeking change within the NHS in order to ensure every patient with a leg and/or foot condition has access to a treatment plan and local pathway that will increase their chances of healing and of having a better quality of life. In order to achieve change, the Legs Matter campaign is encouraging patients to actively challenge the system if they feel they are not receiving the care and support they need. Remember, escalation for a second opinion is not a failure of care; it is a measure of good care. Today we wanted to highlight the personal stories of patients living with leg and foot conditions, you can read them here: https://lnkd.in/eqmZDG5g We know how much leg and foot conditions can affect you mentally as well as physically and the key message is you are not alone. #legsmatter #legsmatterweek #lymphoedemaawareness #lymphoedema #patientchoicedirect #patientchoice #lipoedema #lipoedemawarrior #lymphoedemasupportnetwork #lipoedemaawareness #lipoedemauk

Watching a loved one battle acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an incredibly heart-wrenching experience for any family. The uncertainty, fear, and helplessness can be overwhelming. Every beep of the medical equipment and each visit to the ICU amplifies the stress and worry. It’s crucial to provide evidence-based therapy while optimizing innovative technologies, such as the Pronova-O₂™ for patients and caregivers alike. Using effective, efficient and automative technology allows the caregivers more time to focus on other essential roles to include educating and supporting families affected by this disease. Recognizing the profound impact ARDS has on the entire family and supporting them through their journey is essential. At #TurnMedical we are here to help provide #education on critical illnesses such as ARDS with our revolutionary #educational platform, #TurnUniversity. We have also developed a list of resources for families experiencing a loved one fighting ARDS. Visit turnmedical.com for the patient and family brochure and resources to learn more.
