Description

In our debut episode, we have the current American Society of Hand Therapists President, Rachel Pigott, MPH, OTR/L, CHT, discussing equity in hand therapy. We discuss how equal care is different from equitable care and how we as therapists can work to improve access to therapy services for all people groups. The COVID-19 pandemic required therapists to look at providing our services through a new lens and our profession discovered a way to reach our clients when we couldn’t be face to face. What if now we incorporated this approach to increase access to our specialty services to those clients with limited resources? Rachel also gives us suggestions on how we can advocate for equity in hand therapy. Be sure to subscribe to the Hands in Motion Podcast. Once subscribed, please rate and review the podcast to help us reach new listeners and continue offering valuable and relevant content.
