Judith has praised Bradford Royal Infirmary's "trailblazing" fracture liaison service during a recent visit.
Judith said:
Bradford offers a trailblazing fracture liaison service for those living with osteoporosis. I heard from Janine and the team how they are working to ‘capture the fracture’ early, exploring minor or unexplained fractures to diagnose osteoporosis promptly and help patients better understand and manage their bone health.
It was wonderful to meet members of the support group, volunteers living with this condition, and hear about their work to raise awareness about bone health and the importance of early diagnosis, so that people get the support they need before that preventable, life-changing or life-threatening fracture.
Good, early intervention on bone health can keep people active and independent for longer, prevent unnecessary pain, and save lives.
