Thank you for attending the first fully virtual Hand Therapy New Zealand conference, despite the changes along the way due to covid-19 we are grateful you stuck with us!

You will be emailed a certificate of attendance for your records.
We would like to sincerely thank all our invited speakers for being so flexible and adapting their talks so it could be delivered online. I’m sure everyone found the content to be informative and educational.

Hand and Upper Limb Therapy Paper 2022 - AUT
What is the basic idea behind the paper?
The hand is an amazingly complex and intricate instrument. As a primary
means by which people manipulate things in the environment the hand and
upper limb are prone to damage and injury. Function follows form. As
such any underlying pathology of the hand or
injury can have a major impact on a person's ability to interact within
their environment or to engage in their occupations of choice. This
paper offers NZ registered physiotherapy and occupational therapy
practitioners the opportunity to explore a wide range
of hand and upper limb problems and to learn from expert clinicians and
each other how to assess and manage some of the common hand injuries
and impairments.
When will the paper run?
Block one April
Block two late June-eary July
Block three late September
In between these on site block courses you study by distance with readings, online discussion and assignment preparation.
