What Orthotics can do for patients
In February 2024, we had an opportunity to present a patient story to the board which highlights the work of the Orthotic Service within NHSGGC.
Firstly, we hear from Nikki Munro, Clinical Lead and Service Manager who explains the role and remit of the Adult Orthotic Service. Following on from Nikki, we hear from Laura who is an Advanced Specialist Orthotist and the MSK Team Lead for Orthotics. We then meet Frances who had an accident at work which resulted in difficulties with walking.
This video demonstrates how the Orthotic Team and Frances worked together to help her achieve her goals including dancing.
