Activity and Mobility Promotion (JH-AMP)

#everyBODYmoves

The #everyBODYmoves campaign is a grassroots effort to address immobility harm in the acute hospital and post-acute setting. Our goal is to develop a forum for clinicians and organizations to share best practices that nurses, therapists and medical colleagues can embrace. Below are mobility tools and campaign resources created by our team that can be used to create your own mobility campaign within your organization.

Share Successes on Social

Follow us on our social media platforms and use #everyBODYmoves to share your mobility efforts and challenge others.

Interactive Game for Patients

Get your patients up and moving the fun way! This game encourages patients who are able to walk to get out of their rooms and track their personal mobility achievements. 

The game can be printed on a 24x64-inch poster board and hung in your unit. Patients write their names on the provided game pieces and move them on the board as they complete laps around the unit.
