Abstract:
As in other parts of the rehabilitation of disabled, e.g. paraplegics the teamwork of all staff-members together with the integrated patient is indispensable. The occupational therapists combine the experience of a many year's training with their creative phantasy. The amputee learns by the assistance of occupational therapists to become independent. The physician has a coordinative and leading function in the team of nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists and the orthopaedical technical workshop.
