talking about different ways to keep a stroke patient's hand on the fww at the end of the course. in agreeance about using a givmohr sling with a fww, however, i do like to use a shoulder subluxation brace with the rolyan walker splint or use a platform or icu walker to provide the approximation or proprioceptive feedback.

i would have liked to seen the camera pointed at the slides when the instructor was speaking instead of just focusing on the instructor herself, since i took this class online instead of in person.
