Hi I am Sibyl. Tweeting from St. Lucia in the Caribbean. #enviroPT #physiotalk
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
Good evening - currently a bit of blue sky in Edinburgh :) Tweeting on the @physiotalk account on a topic close to my heart outside of physiotherapy - so why have I not thought about in AT work?? #physiotalk
Kath Donohue @kath_donohue
@physiotalk #physiotalk Kath Donohue here from the University of Plymouth, School of Health Professions, Physiotherapy Programme. Really looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts around the questions, great topic - thank you.

@physiotalk I do not know - but suspect at present it might be the plastic we dispose of with our PPE? #physiotalk
Kath Donohue @kath_donohue
@physiotalk #physiotalk Currently the amount of PPE used and disposed of every day. We are looking into a scheme developed by reworked at https://t.co/4K4cgcoW2l

@physiotalk Q1: on the whole we use quite a bit of electricity and with COVID- Lots of disposable items/gadgets #physiotalk

Tonight it's me, Annie Palstam, who host the #physiotherapistsforfuture account joining in the #physiotalk on sustainability. PFF started two years ago in support of FridaysForFuture, to raise awareness and action on climate change. From Gothenburg, Sweden.
Kath Donohue @kath_donohue
@physiotalk Absolutely - should have clarified our PPE use in educating the future clinicians not clinical waste! #physiotalk

@physiot39280639 Have been following. Keep it up! The environment will be thankful! #physiotalk
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
@physioralph @physiotalk Its such an interesting question In my 'home life' I'm the local environmental champion and run our local plastic free group. Have I applied this at work though? Not so much... #physiotalk
Sibyl Edward, P.T., D.P.T.πŸ‡±πŸ‡¨πŸŒŽ @Sibyl_Edward
@physiotalk Q2. Was part of a Discussion Session at #WorldPhysio2021 and although residing out of the UK, there began my environmental/climate awareness. Once you are aware, there is no turning back #physiotalk
@physiotherapistsforfuture @physiot39280639
At the Sahlgrenska University Hospital here in Gothenburg, units are equipped with electric bicycles to be used for home visits with patients as well as transports during work hours. #physiotalk
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
@PhysioSusnet @physioralph @physiotalk I'm not aware of any group - will need to find out! #physiotalk
Sibyl Edward, P.T., D.P.T.πŸ‡±πŸ‡¨πŸŒŽ @Sibyl_Edward
@jillfromrhyl @physiotalk @physioralph True. Maybe in comparison to fuel? The net effect can clearly be disputed and so I agree with you. #physiotalk
@physiotherapistsforfuture @physiot39280639
Q3: we have just published a call to include a perspective of sustainable development in Physiotherapy research. Physiotherapists could make a significant contribution to sustainable healthcare, we need to evaluate it and show it!#physiotalk https://t.co/PZSbLaBLym
Sibyl Edward, P.T., D.P.T.πŸ‡±πŸ‡¨πŸŒŽ @Sibyl_Edward
@physiot39280639 Wonderful news. Maybe some Measurable data on how physiotherapy contributes to the environment. #physiotalk

@jillfromrhyl @PhysioSusnet @physiotalk We are lucky in that our rehab wards have access to a great and recently refurbished courtyard garden. #physiotalk
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
@jillfromrhyl @physiotalk @PhysioSusnet Even simple changes would be great. We have a 'biodiversity' area by our car park - I think its just a grass bank that they don't mow, but every little helps! #physiotalk
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
@PhysioSusnet @jillfromrhyl @physiotalk I'll try to remember to take a picture when I'm next in on Wed! #physiotalk
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
Meant that from this account!! #physiotalk
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
@jillfromrhyl @physioralph @physiotalk @PhysioSusnet Can go porous paving but very few do... #physiotalk
@physiotherapistsforfuture @physiot39280639
Q4: however not specific to PT, I find this WHO guidande for environmentally sustainable healthcare facilities a general and useful guide #physiotalk https://t.co/otkLze62TY
Kath Donohue @kath_donohue
@physiotalk #physiotalk Advert just out for clinicians with an interest in the environment, especially sustainability and carbon reduction, to join the Chief Sustainability Officer's Clinical Fellowship Scheme: https://t.co/XJPeDU45GS
Janet Thomas @JanetThomas47
@physiotalk Plan my home visits (in a largeish rural / urban area) by location to reduce my mileage #physiotalk
@physiotherapistsforfuture @physiot39280639
Q5: as a University teacher for PTs to come, I find it essential to include sustainable development in all my teaching. To integrate SD and when students realize their potential as PTs in these issues is fantastic, it gives me hope for a sustainable future! #physiotalk
