With the right knowledge and care, pressure injuries are preventable. To support the #StopthePressure campaign, our Hospita...l and Pressure Care (HPC) team are working closely with healthcare professionals across Australia to raise awareness and understanding about pressure injury prevention.

11.01.2022 When Victor experienced a stroke, his lovely wife Joy became his full-time carer. Today, they are continuing to work towards Victor’s goals to reengage in daily activities. We are very honoured to be part of their life journey. Their story is below. Joy and Victor have been married for nearly 50 years. Life changed considerably for the couple in recent years. At just 68, and with no symptoms, Victor sat down to dinner with Joy after work, and without warning, his heart stoppe...d. What followed was a three-month hospital stay and permanent physical and cognitive impairment for Victor. Determined that Victor remain at home, Joy became his full-time carer. Support from their homecare package provider and ILS was invaluable. Joy describes her experience with ILS OT Michael Portelli, as a lifeline. Victor wouldn’t be home today if it weren’t for Michael, Joy says. Michael worked with Joy to assess Victor’s functional needs and provided advice on suitable equipment solutions. Considerations included sourcing equipment to keep Victor safe and comfortable, with Joy's limited strength in mind. Victor's reclining manual wheelchair now makes it easier for trips outside. Together they can sip coffee by the water, Victor in his wheelchair with Joy by his side.

02.01.2022 OT Week in Australia starts today and this year’s theme is Resilience: supporting our communities to rebuild, recover and reengage. Occupational therapists (OT) make a wonderful difference to people’s lives as they support people to rebuild their independence and provide services to aid the recovery journey so that people can reengage in meaningful activities. To our team of dedicated OTs, thank you for supporting our communities. #thisisot #occupationaltherapy #occupationaltherapist #thankyou #ot #ilsau
