Amputations
We understand that every amputation is unique, and so is the rehabilitation journey. Our team of experienced physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and prosthetists work together to create personalized rehabilitation plans tailored to the specific needs of each patient. These plans focus on physical recovery, emotional support, and the development of skills needed for daily living.
Pre-Amputation Counseling and Education
For patients who are scheduled for an amputation, we offer pre-amputation counseling and education. This service helps patients and their families prepare for the surgery, understand the rehabilitation process, and address any concerns they may have. Our goal is to reduce anxiety and ensure that patients are fully informed about what to expect before, during, and after the procedure.
Post-Amputation Rehabilitation
After the amputation, our post-operative rehabilitation program begins. This includes wound care, pain management, and physical therapy to help patients recover and regain strength. Our therapists focus on improving mobility, balance, and coordination, ensuring that patients are able to move safely and effectively with or without assistive devices.
Prosthetic Fitting and Training
One of the most critical aspects of amputation rehabilitation is the fitting and training of prosthetic limbs. At MINISTONES TO MILESTONES, we work closely with skilled prosthetists to provide custom-made prosthetics that fit comfortably and function effectively. We also offer extensive training to help patients learn how to use their prosthetic limbs, from basic movements to more complex activities like walking, climbing stairs, and participating in sports.
Occupational Therapy for Daily Living
Our occupational therapists play a vital role in helping patients adapt to their new circumstances. We offer training in daily living activities, such as dressing, bathing, cooking, and using adaptive equipment. Our goal is to help patients regain their independence and confidence in performing everyday tasks.
Psychological Support and Counseling
Amputation can have a significant emotional and psychological impact. To address these challenges, we offer counseling and psychological support services. Our team of psychologists and counselors helps patients cope with the emotional aspects of amputation, including grief, depression, anxiety, and changes in body image. We also provide support for family members and caregivers to help them understand and cope with the changes they may experience.
