Journey of an Amputee Seminar
Over the years LPC have been fortunate to be part of seminars gaining insight into the world of prosthetics and in 2017, we decided to host our own seminar on a topic close to our hearts: The Journey of an Amputee.
The seminar was set out to exchange, share and discuss vital information to Case Managers and Consultants on the rehabilitation and challenges faced by an amputee during their journey from the first days, weeks, months and years.
The seminar included several high profiled key speakers such as Dr Imad Sedki who is amongst a small minority of Doctors in the UK who has dedicated his full career to working with amputees, Allyson Ballard and Dr Ian McCurdie from Remedy Health specialists in rehabilitation, QC Barrister David Sanderson from 12 Kings Bench Walk, Occupational Therapist Robyn Bryant from Jacqueline Webb and Charity Manager, Deborah Bent from Limbless Association were also invited to share their key involvement in this journey.
One of the highlights of the day was being able to showcase some of our client’s successful turning points and share their individual journeys throughout Abdo’s talk.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank Sita Soni and Claire Roantree from Boyes Turner for accommodating us with their venue in Reading and the delicious food served throughout the day.
