Limb Loss Management Program
Losing an arm, leg, foot or hand is a challenge on many levels—medically, psychologically and physically. Successful treatment and recovery requires a multifaceted, integrated approach. CMC's Limb Loss Management Program offers comprehensive care during a patient’s early limb loss stage, through recovery and beyond.
Our program can be a resource for you wherever you are in your journey. You will find the education, support and care you need when considering life with limb loss at each phase of your recovery to help you live a full, active life.
This program draws on the medical resources of CMC and the clinical excellence of Next Step Bionics and Prosthetics, Inc., a national leader in prosthetic care focused on patient satisfaction. If you are a candidate for a prosthesis, whether you are looking to continue participation in competitive sports or hoping to find comfort in everyday tasks, we want you to find the functionality and flexibility you need with a fit that offers exceptional ease of use.
CMC Outpatient Rehabilitation Services Include:
- Physical Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Nurse Care Management
- Physiatry
Our skilled staff works with you to address your individualized needs for returning to daily life at home, at work, or in the community. Our therapists will work closely with you and your prosthetist to assist in your limb care and attaining independence through your prosthetic management and functional mobility skills.
