See the flyer below twhich shows how 900 steps per day can help your patients maintain their function while in the hospital. As you motivate patients to get out of bed and walk, this can help you teach them why walking is so important. Also below is a flyer that describes two patients—Betty Bedbound and Wanda Walksalot—and how the different approaches to their mobility significantly impacts their lives once they are discharged from the hospital. Thanks to Elliot Health System for sharing these great resources.
