Dr. Rosemarie Watson:

Local physiotherapists would need to have basic EB training from the mother ship, so to speak, because their role is to help to strengthen and stretch the limbs and there may also be a role in splinting of the hands. They would need support. At the moment, it is difficult. There are some local physiotherapists helping out and our physiotherapy department in the hospitals always tries to make a link in the community because patients may have to make frequent visits.
