- Looking for people to join our stakeholder group to develop a core outcomes set for trials of interventions designed to treat/prevent psychological problems post-stroke! You may have spotted this slide in @amandafarrin.bsky.social's talk at #uksf24 this morning...
- Collaboration with those with lived experience has been a big theme of #uksf2024.. if you're interested in seeing how this might work, do check out our poster around #coproduction of an intervention to support stroke unit staff to discuss recovery with stroke survivors and their families 👇👇👇
- Some truly inspirational talks at the UK Stroke Forum Day 2! Key learning so far around: ➡️High prevalence of sleep difficulties and their association with worse outcomes ➡️Potential benefits of solution focused brief therapy for ppl with aphasia ➡️Emphasis on lived experience throughout #uksf24
- Reposted by Louisa Burton#UKSF24 Prof Terry Quinn - excellent presentation challenging the stroke community to “zoom out”… rather than focussing in, specialising too far and working in silos. Priorities - recognising multimorbidity, frailty awareness, social determinants, rehab and life after stroke.
- Martin James discusses the glacial process of both accumulation and implemention of stroke evidence. Highlights importance of qualitative research to understand barriers to implementation. Accelerating implementation Is all our business! #uksf24 👇👇
- Reposted by Louisa BurtonTogether we can achieve more. Great streamline for today’s #codesign session at #uksf24 #personalisation #livedexperience #respect @choclit.bsky.social
- Loving the emphasis on involving people with lived experience at the #ukstrokeforum when developing healthcare interventions. It has such a powerful impact - why wouldn't we involve those who are the experts in their condition?
- First up on my #uksf24 agenda for today is co-hosting a table @thestrokeassoc.bsky.social's Research World Cafe session! Come and join us - we'd love to hear your thoughts about recruitment and retention and how the Stroke Association might support it #ukstrokeforum2024 @auasresearch.bsky.social
