Listserve,

Earlier this month I posted a request for assistance concerning the
structure of an O & P clinic. This request was in conjunction with a
hospital's rehab department request. I was disappointed with the
responses.

I received the usual out of office automated responses, 6 request that
I post the results, and another which spoke of the negative side
effects of a clinic. In short I received nothing which could help
me---help the hospital. Once again I am requesting your help.

The original post as follows;

I have been asked by a hospital to assist the rehab department in
formulating a structure, or by-laws if you will, for the establishment
of an orthotic prosthetic clinic. Among the topics they request input
on include the selection of O & P practitioners, establishing a rotation
of facilities, recruiting referral sources and the like.

Over the years I have participated in numerous O & P clinics but I was
never involved with setting one up and making it work, what do I do?

Can you suggest a source for info that would assist us, or perhaps you
have a clinic format in your piles of papers.

Any assistance would be most appreciated.
