Early Mobilisation and exercise after fragility fracture

Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to promote the role of the nurse and other practitioners in patients’ early mobilisation and exercise after fragility fractures. The importance of early mobilisation and exercise is highlighted, along with practical information on assessment, pain and weight bearing and tips on how to facilitate early mobilisation. There is a focus on early mobilisation after hip fracture as this is the most common significant fragility fracture requiring hospitalisation and surgery. However, many of the issues covered are in common with other types of fragility fracture.
