[Figure: see text] I read your #endPJparalysis news analysis (31 May) with wonder and anger. I have worked in rehabilitation nursing for more than 20 years from strokes to surgical to amputation. We always strive to get patients dressed, to aid recovery, promote independence, encourage exercise and to help the patient regain their individuality. I am shocked that the acute sector is making such a fuss about something they should have been doing all along.
