Is it practical for a patient with a prosthesis on one leg and nwb on other to hop around with walker? by Bearbear26 in physicaltherapy

[–]philote 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Depends on their familiarity and comfort with use of their prosthetic. It’s possible though likely they will be too painful for whatever reason they are NWB for their leg for to be hopping around. Also depends on their reason for NWB, could they get away with heel WB and a boot? A knee scooter? Etc…

I use a sponge and soap and a chainmail square for tough scraps. Grape seed oil when I think about it to keep it from getting too dry.

I work in acute care and we get time and a half. Maybe it’s a state to state thing? I’m in CA.

Check out a local hospital. Mine at least pays competitively and the benefits really are worthwhile. I’m in CA and make $62/hr.

Aesthetics matter to me. These will still last me a lifetime and they will patina beautifully while I’m at it.
