This 2-day course teaches participants to perform an accurate assessment and clinical diagnosis of wrist pain and management of frequently seen conditions. Wrist anatomy relating to real-life clinical presentations will be covered in-depth and in an interactive and engaging way. Practical components include surface anatomy, special tests of the wrist, a structured and comprehensive wrist assessment and practice.
Prerequisites
The course is aimed at a less-advanced private practitioner or an experienced therapist who has worked in the hand therapy field but has NOT been required to assess and diagnose wrist pain and injury.
It is suitable for physiotherapists, occupational therapists and practitioners of hand therapy working as, or hoping to work as, primary contact health practitioners, who are required to accurately assess and diagnose wrist pain and injury as well as provide conservative management. It is also suitable for those wishing to improve their wrist skills in the public hospital system, especially ED departments.
