Amputation

Individuals with surgical or traumatic amputation of a limb are offered a comprehensive rehabilitation program to address their physical functioning, vocational, psychological, and daily living needs.

Exercise programs are directed toward preventing contractures and strengthening muscle groups. Utilizing the rehabilitation team, which includes expertise in orthotics and prosthetics, the program assists the patient in restoring maximum mobility and limb functioning.

The patient education program uses recent technological advances in prosthetics and focuses primarily on effectively returning the patient to his or her previous lifestyle.
