What will I learn?
This short course will build your confidence in prescribing and adjusting orthoses for gait issues from stroke. You will learn how to assess strength, range of motion, balance, spasticity, and gait properly, then select AFOs, KAFOs, and insoles that fit each person's needs. You will practise measuring outcomes, progressing with orthotics, retraining gait, and educating patients, all based on current evidence and guidelines to promote safe and effective movement.
