Teaching Splinting in Qatar
26 physiotherapists from the 7 Government funded Hamad Medical Corporation hospitals attended a bespoke 4 day splinting course, incorporating hand, wrist and elbow static and dynamic thermoplastic splints. The course was designed and run by NES Hand Therapy Training to introduce the physiotherapists to the theory, fabrication and clinical reasoning for a wide range of splints and clinical conditions. As the course progressed, some impressive splints were being made, much fun was had and the physios were excited to be gaining new skills and knowledge.
