 Everyone deserves help, and we are happy to be there.
Disabled Explorers gave our first dual in-service recently at the Arizona State Hospital. Part of the presentation was for new amputees with focus on physical and emotional expectations. In addition we covered practical information on skin care, insurance and daily life.
The other part of our presentation was for staff including nursing, recreational and physical therapist and educators. For this group our focus was on care, motivation and the reactions to limb loss.
As much as we would have liked to have given our in-service in the great outdoors, first we have to get the person and their caregivers ready to go outdoors.
