Certified Hand Therapy
The loss of use of a person’s hand is challenging, and it affects every aspect of their daily life. Dignity Health has a team of certified hand therapists, who work closely with patients who have had all types of hand injuries, to make sure our patients recover as completely as possible.
The Highest Level of Care
Dignity Health's therapists who attain the certified hand therapy credential offer an extra assurance to patients that they are receiving the highest level of care. The certification requires advanced study and training, and our therapists are dedicated to the highest standards of practice.
