Welcome to hand therapy
Both Occupational Therapists and Physical Therapists make up the therapy team at the Hand and Upper Limb Centre. The therapists have all received special training in hand therapy and work within a hand therapy framework. This framework allows for cross-training between the two professions so that patient treatment will be similar regardless of the original basic training of the treating therapist. Working within this framework allow patients to be followed by a single therapist throughout their course of treatment regardless of their needs. Our hand therapy team maintains close communication with the referring plastic and orthopaedic surgeons, nursing staff and social worker to provide effective and timely care for our patients.
