Key takeaways

Here are what youths learnt during the session:

1. Prosthetist and Orthotist: These professionals specialize in creating and fitting artificial limbs and supportive devices like braces to enhance mobility and independence for their patients, allowing them to engage in activities they enjoy.

2. Respiratory therapist: They provide care for patients with lung diseases, manage ventilators, and administer treatments like oxygen and medication. They also educate patients and families about respiratory care and treatments.
