ProstheticsExplained is a new resource that provides people with amputations an easy-to-follow guide about navigating life after amputation. Amputations can be an overwhelming experience, especially when patients are underinformed on estimated timelines, the recovery process, and information about prosthesis fitting.
Evergreen Prosthetics and Orthotics clinics, like many O&P facilities, provide resource guides to our patients with recent amputations and have found great success with compiling important information into a short booklet. We also provide them to patients prior to their amputations whenever possible. The resource facilitates great conversation and leads to questions the patient didn’t even know to ask.
