On 14th October, the 14 allied health professions (AHPs) will be celebrating the 6th annual AHPs’ Day.
As the third-largest clinical workforce within health and care, AHPs play a pivotal role in supporting the NHS Long-Term Plan. AHPs' Day is an annual occasion for AHPs in England and now internationally to unite and celebrate their contribution.
This day offers a platform to spotlight the remarkable impact AHPs have on the delivery of care. The collaborations across services, organisations, regions, and nations allow us to achieve:
- Reinforced awareness about the vital roles of each of the individual Allied Health Professions.
- Highlighting local service achievements and their profound influence on patient care and public health.
- Collaborative efforts with other services and organisations for integrated working.
- A showcase for those considering a career as an AHP.
The Chief Allied Health Professions Officer (CAHPO) will be delivering a live address to the AHP workforce at 9:30am on 13th October 2023. Find out more here.
This initiative thrives on local inspiration and opportunities. By following the hashtag #AHPsDay on Twitter, you can explore past year's highlights and see what's happening this year. We encourage you to retweet, share, like, and repost content and celebrate the important role of the dietetic workforce within the AHP community. We look forward to seeing what you are up to!
