MSA ’s Faculty of Physical Therapy Organized a Field Training at Ahl Masr Hospital
As part of its commitment to providing hands-on learning experiences, The Surgery and Burns Unit at the Faculty of Physical Therapy at October University for Modern Sciences and Arts (MSA) conducted a specialized field training session for third-year students from the Department of Surgery and Burn Physical Therapy at Ahl Masr Hospital. This initiative, supervised by Prof. Dr. Olfat Diab, Dean of the Faculty, offered students the opportunity to conduct clinical evaluations for burn patients and observe various burn cases across different age groups.
 
 
The training emphasized the pivotal role of physical therapy in helping burn patients regain confidence and restore their quality of life. Early mobilization and functional training for daily activities were highlighted as essential components of burn rehabilitation. For patients with lower limb burns, which may lead to difficulty walking or, in some cases, amputation, physical therapists assessed mobility needs and prescribed appropriate walking aids.
 
In cases involving upper limb burns, which often result in deformities or amputations, students observed how specialized training, splints, or assistive devices help patients relearn basic skills like gripping and performing daily tasks. This practical exposure enriched the students’ understanding of burn rehabilitation, bridging theoretical knowledge with real-world applications and reinforcing their ability to deliver compassionate, effective care.
 
This training reflects the Faculty’s mission to equip students with the skills and knowledge required to meet the needs of the healthcare sector, combining scientific expertise with personalized patient care.
