OT help please! I'm 146cms and need to install a 2nd handrail on stairs, I'm on waiting list for an OT home visit, my physio suggests I go ahead and get a joiner to install a handrail on stairs now. Will my short stature, reach, hip height need to be taken into account? TYIA.

The connection between #adolescentidiopathicscoliosis and #functionalgastrointestinaldisorders remains unclear. This #study found that #AIS is correlated with an elevated likelihood of #FGIDs, indicating that it may be potential #riskfactor. #scoliosis pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38255431/

It's only right that all patients are reviewed. No governance , a toxic culture all played a part in Catherine's death. There needs to be a new inquest opened into Catherine's Death. @NCAlliance_NHS @BBCNWT @VictoriaAtkins

For those supporting a yes vote to the care referendum, have a read. This is the State 'striving' to help. This reality is why I will vote no and call on Govt to put the rights based defintion of care of Citizens Assembly to the public. independent.ie/irish-news/cor…

It was a pleasure to attend and speak at this important event. I am calling on @chhcalling to withdraw the NI budget as recommended by the UN Committee on the rights of the child, & that all NI government departments review their equality impact assessments on budget cuts.

@scolionetwork @CHI_Ireland @LeoVaradkar @CeoHardiman @DonnellyStephen Both my daughter and myself have had our surgery, but to all the people who are still waiting it's disgraceful. When government promise you the sun moon and stars. Is it any wonder that a lot of nurses have gone abroad, its sad that all these children are left waiting.

Any parents of frequent flier or long stay patients in Crumlin or Tallaght who might need accommodation, a friend of mine has a hotel paid for for the next 5 x nights including tonight and would like to gift it to another family whose child is *CURRENTLY* in hospital.
