Life, Death and Exercise: Gym culture in end of life care
Helena Talbot Rice, Senior Physiotherapist and AHP Lead,
St Christopher’s Hospice
Helena joined St Christopher’s in June 2011 with a total of thirteen years
experience working clinically in the acute sector. She has worked in various
large teaching hospitals and has lectured and taught at undergraduate
degree level as well as to qualified members of the multidisciplinary team on
study days and training sessions.
Therapeutic exercise has an increasingly recognised role in the
management and support of people with advanced progressive illness. With
improving survival rates and an increasing population with multiple
co-morbidities, health care professionals are faced with the challenge of
providing purposeful rehabilitation to many. As such, the provision of
dedicated space for rehabilitation and exercise groups within the hospice
setting is growing and many hospices and palliative care units within the
United Kingdom and overseas are now developing gym programmes.
With the early stages of evidence emerging in this area, this study day will
seek to draw together some of this evidence and challenge new ways of
thinking around the use of gyms and exercise groups in hospice and end of
life care settings. The day will comprise talks, workshops, case studies and
discussion time as well as help delegates to think towards future direction
and service development.
