An OT Student Learning to Perform Hand Therapy

VHSI at Cedar Crest College OTD Program

Drawing inspiration from the teaching hospital model, known for its superior outcomes, we have designed our practice to serve as a center of learning. We have partnered with Cedar Crest College to offer an onsite teaching pro bono clinic for underserved populations in need of specialized upper limb and hand therapy.

A Patient Receiving Care at Our Free Clinic

State-of-the-Art Teaching Clinic

The clinic space is newly renovated and fully equipped. This teaching lab was designed with the vision of being able to provide specialized upper limb and hand therapy services while educating future clinicians. All clinical care is delivered or supervised by a licensed occupational therapist and certified hand therapist.
