  In the acute care environment, we often get labeled as the "upper limb" specialists, which is not inaccurate, though slightly off-putting when we think about just how many areas of human occupation we can readily address. When a patient has experienced an upper limb amputation, this makes many areas of day-to-day occupation a challenge. This sheet provides the basics of each stage of the rehabilitation process following upper limb amputation and what role we as OTs can play in the process as well.
