Right Hand Therapy is an AOTA Approved Provider of continuing education – Provider #11677. AOTA does not endorse specific course content, products, or clinical procedures.
This live course will provide the participant with exceptional hands-on learning about the carpal joints, pathology, evaluation and emerging concepts in conservative wrist rehabilitation interventions. Understanding the wrist is complex – this presentation aims to simplify the learning process with the use of anatomical models and hands on practice opportunities. It is important for the therapist to fully understand this joint’s complex biomechanics and sensorimotor system that impacts alignment and function. Once this foundation has been established, participants will learn how to perform a basic clinical evaluation, and then learn how to create and execute an appropriate plan of care utilizing various fun, functional and evidenced-based treatment interventions. Participants will also receive a FREE carpal puzzle model as part of this course! This educational level of this course is intermediate and a certificate of completion will be issued to all participants completing this CEU requirement.
Following the course, participants will be able to:
