Since 2005, the Department of Health, the NHS, patients, clinicians and other key stakeholders have been working together to identify the best ways to improve care for those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to reduce the amount of people with the disease.

You can access the consultation documents relating to the COPD strategy on the Department of Health website here. The consultation period runs until the 6th April 2010.

I am looking to recruit Physiotherapists working in critical care at Band 7 or above. I am doing an MSc research project to explore the clinical reasoning process senior Physiotherapists employ when deciding on critical care rehabilitation.   The results will hopefully provide documented information regarding the clinical reasoning process of Senior Physiotherapists from around the country.
