In this bonus episode, Beth Collins, a clinical lead at Wellspect Healthcare, interviews colleague and friend Sallyanne Haigh on her recent surgery experience in a non-spinal setting. They discuss the significant gaps in SCI care and the lack of training and knowledge within these settings.
Sallyanne shares that despite the successful surgery, the post-op care she received was inadequate due to a lack of understanding of SCI. This experience highlights the urgent need for improved training and education for carers and nurses in non-spinal settings as many patients with SCIs report feeling neglected and misunderstood.
