How people lose their limbs can make a big difference to the availability of rehabilitation services, but according to our panel, one aspect that always seems to be under resourced is mental health.
Studies show that 30-40% of amputees suffer mental health difficulties following surgery yet support with mental health is not provided as standard. Charities can be a valuable resource in helping people rediscover who they are and what they can do after surgery.
Our host and serious injury expert, Richard Biggs, is joined by Emma Joy-Staines from Steel Bones and Josephine Bridges from Positive Bones. They share their lived experience of amputation and working with amputees, as they discuss:
• The challenges people face after amputation
• The difference between private rehabilitation provision and the services available through the NHS
• Positive and negative developments in amputee provision over recent years and their thoughts on future provision
• The availability of charity support and the reasons why amputees turn to them for advice.
Find out what our panel would change if they could wave a magic wand to improve services for all those affected.
