Introduction
This project's goal is to assist a local School that is not currently equipped or staffed to provide Physiotherapy and does not have the funding or resources to tackle this issue, so this project aims to equip the school with PT equipment, PT assistance/aide training as well as Emergency First Aid training. This will allow full capacity of rehabilitation with the goal to maximize functional control of the body or increase the gross motor function of the children.
Report
In addition to capacity building of the staff through training and providing education to individuals, improved quality of care at the school has also helped prevent further physical deterioration of the children by funding equipment, we can create a lasting impact as this could increase the capacity that the school can handle for therapy and allow them to continue the work for years to come. PT will give these children a new lease in life and the best chance for taking control of their lives. We need $200 for a muscle simulator for the PT program.
