Activity and Mobility Promotion (JH-AMP)

#everyBODYmoves

The #everyBODYmoves campaign is a grassroots effort that aims 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 practice that nurses, therapists and medical colleagues can embrace.

#everyBODYmoves Resources

Download these resources to help you foster a culture of mobility in your institution. We offer several mobility evaluation tools and informational flyers that can be printed as large as a poster size or used digitally as screen savers or slideshows. These resources are available for download and use under a creative commons license.

NEW: 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.
