Re: shoulder dislocation orthosis

Pete Abbott CP

Good day list servers,
 
I am looking for help on what orthosis to recommend to a patient who has had
5 surgeries on her shoulder and is still is dislocated.
.
She has lost 250 plus pounds but still has the skin to go with the 250
pounds. Her doc told her that she will just have to live with the dislocated
shoulder.
 
Well now she had a hip replacement and needs to use a walker. After her hip
surgery, she developed foot drop. She now catches her toe and stumbles. Of
course she needs an AFO that I casted for today, even though I do not have a
script for said orthosis.
 
There corker is she came in for diabetic shoes that she had a prescription
for.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Pete Abbott, CP
