Dear List,
Once again we are coming up to the time when we change the clocks
(batteries in fire alarms, toothbrush heads, etc.)......May I suggest to
your clients who use crutches, canes or walkers that this is the perfect
time to check the tips for wear and tear. It is far better to replace them
before the treads run down and prevent injury due to slipping and/or poor
traction.
When not in my prosthetic, I've been using crutches for over 40
years....it's a good habit to get into and you'll be doing your clients a
service.
Sincerely yours,
Christina Skoski MD
