A Moving Medicine website to redefine Physical Activity in Healthcare
We are proud to unveil the freshly upgraded Moving Medicine website, marking a transformative leap forward for our initiative. This redesign will empower more healthcare professionals than ever before, through personalised consultations, integrated evidence-based tools, and dynamic local and global support to revolutionise physical activity promotion in clinical care.
Moving Medicine is an initiative by the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine UK, in partnership with Sport England and the Office for Health Inequalities and Disparities. Originally launched in 2018, the site has undergone an extensive process to upgrade the site to reflect the current pressures on the NHS and provide the best support to healthcare professionals and the people they work with. This work has been supported by Sport England, thanks to funding from the National Lottery, helping us to strengthen the site’s impact and reach across the healthcare sector.
Following feedback from a range of stakeholders and a survey of users, we conducted a review of the current site and developed new capabilities to reflect this. Key changes and upgrades include the option to select comorbidities when having a person-centred conversation about physical activity. The upgraded site lets healthcare professionals personalise consultations by selecting as many conditions as the patient presents with. A new evidence finder functionality allows the clinician to aggregate data and evidence based on the robust Moving Medicine development process and save this for future learning. Not only will this support clinicians and their learning, but it will also provide support and a useful learning tool for undergraduates across healthcare to improve their physical activity knowledge.
