You’re invited to join our session on acute presentation and inpatient care in paediatric spinal injuries (SCI) with Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust.

We're pleased to welcome a fantastic line-up of professional guest speakers with a wide range of experiences, both in treating and providing aftercare to paediatric patients with spinal cord injuries.

The session will focus on acute presentation and inpatient care featuring:

• Emily Davies (Speciality Dr Paediatric Neurology and Neurorehab Medical Lead), discussing the acute medical aspects of spinal cord injury alongside the spinal cord injury pathway
• Chantelle Rea (Clinical Nurse Educator) and Andrea Patterson (Acute Outreach Sister in Spinal Cord Injury), discussing nursing care
• Rachael Bennet and Jenny Thomas (Sheffield Children’s Hospital Therapy Team), discussing starting a rehabilitation journey and key factors
• Sarah Boulby (Urology Nurse Specialist), discussing bladder and bowel management in spinal patients.

We look forward to welcoming healthcare professionals in hospitals, specialist units and outpatient/community settings, as well as private rehab therapists. There will be interactive Q&A breaks following each session, offering guests the opportunity to learn more about each of the topics.

This is the first session in our latest educational series, in partnership with the Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust. We’ll be hosting another spinal cord injury webinar and two neuroscience seminars in the near future. We’ll have more details of these during our upcoming event, and across our website and social media channels.
