Part two - please watch part one first.
When a patient is admitted to hopital with a spinal cord injury (SCI) it is often traumatic for their family friends and loved ones too. One challenge faced by clinicians is communicating with a patient's 'advocates', people who may know little of spinal cord injury, the care process, nor the problems of prognosis. They may be understandably overwhelmed, they want answers... "doctor, will he/she walk again?"
Inspired by patient feedback, award-winning director Marcus Dillistone, has created "From Darkness Into Light", a film to help explain the core issues with SCI and to provide patient insight. The film is designed not to replace face-to-face discussion, but to complement it.
The film was conceived as a 'prescriptive' communications tool within hopsitals, with the decision of when (and if) to introduce the film to the patient or their advocates being decided by the clinical team.
The 22 minute film (shown in two parts on You Tube) explains the working of the spinal cord, what may happen if damage occurs, and common clinical terminology. It then features patients with varying levels of injury who provide their own insights.
As well as being available to watch and download, the film will also be available on DVD from specialist spinal care units.
The film is a Glory Film Co. charitable initiative and has its own Facebook page, "spinal injury patient film":
