A Registered Orthotics and/or Prosthetics Technician is a professional who fabricates, repairs, and modifies orthotic and prosthetic devices under the guidance of a clinician. They work with specialized materials and tools to create custom devices, such as braces and prosthetic limbs, that meet the unique needs of individuals with mobility impairments or limb loss. Technicians ensure that the devices are constructed to exact specifications, contributing to the functionality, comfort, and durability of the final product.
