Core Competencies for Amputation Rehabilitation - Paperback

by Jason Michel Etchegaray (Author), Heather Krull (Author), Stephanie Brooks Holliday (Author)

With the numbers of service members requiring rehabilitation following combat-related amputation decreasing since 2011, provider skills to treat and rehabilitate amputee patients will atrophy if active steps are not taken to mitigate against skill erosion. The authors identify core competencies in which skills should be maintained and improved so that the military medical community is prepared for future conflict and increased patient volume.
