Webinar Description:
This webinar aims to help clinicians understand factors related to clinical decision-making for rehab management of distal radius fractures. How does the nature of the fracture influence medical and rehab management? What evaluative measures are significant and how do you interpret your findings to inform your plan of care? What strategies are effective to support remediation of impairments and how do we support return to occupations at different phases of rehab?
