End PJ Paralysis
Get dressed to feel your best!
End PJ Paralysis aims to encourage as many patients as possible to get up, get dressed and get moving (where appropriate) to help speed up their recovery.
Speeding up recovery
By getting up, getting dressed and getting mobile patients can:
- Maintain their normal routine
- Keep their independence
- Prevent loss of muscle strength and aerobic function
- Lower the risk of infection
- Prevent pressure sores and falls
- Reduce the length of time they have to spend in hospital
Visiting Hospital?
We are urging patients, where they are able, to “get up and dressed and moving to feel your best”.
If you are visiting a friend or relative in hospital please bring them some clean day clothes.
They will also need well-fitting shoes or slippers and any glasses, hearing aids or mobility aids they use.
