24 Hour Postural Management

[Gazaldinio]

I am a final year physio student, currently doing a community based adult learning difficulty placement. I am going to present info on 24 hour postural management to a group of management and senior staff as part of an IST, i was wondering if anybody had any information or guidance that might help me with this?

Thanks

Gareth
