CHT –
There were some new and good ideas. I wish that you guys had included instructions for making the splint that photographed on the cover of the CD! Felt a little slow at the end reviewing prefabs and although I realize you may be supporting your sponsors,comments about your likes and dislikes of these might have been helpful. Overall a fantastic course

Occupational Therapist/CHT –
I thought the video was excellent. It was easy to follow & I could take breaks throughout. Right after the course, I ordered the splinting material & tried all the splints. That very next week, I made 2 of my patients splints from that course. Loved the new splinting ideas!
