What You'll Learn

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Describe key considerations in hand and upper-extremity rehabilitation.

  • Explore assessment approaches for hand function and activity limitations.

  • Connect functional findings with patient-centered rehabilitation goals.

  • Identify therapeutic intervention and activity-based strategies.

Why Enroll in this Course?

Hand and upper-extremity function can influence a person's ability to apply compression garments, perform self-management routines, and participate in everyday activities. This course develops your understanding of hand function, rehabilitation strategies, and functional independence. These skills can complement lymphedema-focused learning by helping you recognize practical barriers to compression adherence and patient self-management as you work toward your CLT goals.
