Audit resultsTable 5 : Breakdown of the impact of injury on various strength of activities
As can be seen in the above illustration, there is a decline in those reporting that their activity is affected “a lot” post referral compared to those numbers pre-referral. Conversely there is also a rise in the combined number of those who report their activity is affected either “a little” or “not limited” post referral to the Injury Clinic
![Page 13: Managing Musculoskeletal issues in the workplace Sophie Drake Graduate Sports Therapist Occupational Health Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551a0ad3550346a4248b4839/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Audit results Table 8: Impact of injury on capacity to work
Again there is a clear trend of increased number of people reporting no difficulties and decreased number reporting difficulties in capacity at work post clinic.
![Page 14: Managing Musculoskeletal issues in the workplace Sophie Drake Graduate Sports Therapist Occupational Health Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551a0ad3550346a4248b4839/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Audit resultsTable10: Whether the reported injury has impacted on social life
As can be seen this graph shows improvement again pre to post clinic both in increased numbers of those reporting “not at all” to social impact questions and those reporting decreased numbers of “slightly” and “moderately”.

![Page 16: Managing Musculoskeletal issues in the workplace Sophie Drake Graduate Sports Therapist Occupational Health Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551a0ad3550346a4248b4839/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Prevention
![Page 17: Managing Musculoskeletal issues in the workplace Sophie Drake Graduate Sports Therapist Occupational Health Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551a0ad3550346a4248b4839/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Prevention
• Squats• Core activation• Static load – 3-4 seconds and how it is
detrimental– Think about your workers and how long they sit,
carry out an activity for.
![Page 18: Managing Musculoskeletal issues in the workplace Sophie Drake Graduate Sports Therapist Occupational Health Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551a0ad3550346a4248b4839/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Prevention Key Points• Keep up to date with manual handling• Good communication• Speak up if there is a problem• Risk assess all tasks – TILE• Avoid manual handling if able – use equipment• Maintain posture• Bend your knees, using your legs not your back• Look after yourself – eat well, exercise, manage stress
levels• Think about your footwear, clothing• Highlight problems as early as possible even if you feel they
are insignificant!

Future Plans
• Health and Wellbeing • Drop in clinics• Lifestyle Clinics• On site exercise classes• Improve on site gym• Encourage getting away from desk
![Page 20: Managing Musculoskeletal issues in the workplace Sophie Drake Graduate Sports Therapist Occupational Health Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062417/551a0ad3550346a4248b4839/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Back to you• Could you start something similar?• Look at NHS OH local services • Could you pay a private physio/therapist/masseuse to come in, set up deal• Bring in an ergonomist from time to time• Look into purchasing desk based programmes e.g desk yoga• Look at local gyms, could you set up schemes to encourage H&W• Internet – free resources to hand out to colleagues – Back Care, Arthritis UK,
other charities• Could you put on/ arrange exercise classes (Pilates)• Start a company walking group, after work running club, Perkins half
marathon• Come up with an induction pack/ generic office stretches/ prevention advice • Ask other companies, what do they do?• Ask the staff …. What do they want? What would help them?
