Amputations are often the result of a traumatic injury or a prolonged disease process resulting in the loss of a limb.  Regardless of the cause, treatment following an amputation requires a compassionate and motivational approach to rehabilitation.  Treatment includes techniques to improve mobility and perform activities of daily living with the use of prosthetics and without.  In addition to rehabilitation, North Alabama Specialty Hospital specializes in wound care with a full-time wound care nurse and MD surgical coverage.  This interdisciplinary approach will maximize your rehabilitation potential and prevent medical complications.
