Recommendation
We recommend that the Department work with integrated care boards (ICBs) to develop a national roll-out of existing best-practice models to support clinicians to have conversations about physical activity with patients, particularly older patients. This should include a communication strategy to reach all health professionals, clear messaging about the benefit and priority assigned to these conversations and resources to support managers to promote it to their staff. (Recommendation, Paragraph 18)
