Hand Therapy Services
The Physical Medicine Department at Northern Dutchess Hospital has a
staff of experienced, specially trained Occupational and Physical Therapists
specializing in the treatment of injuries to the hand. Our therapists
work one-on-one with patients to develop individual treatment plans to
best address each patient's medical situation. The therapist draws from
a full range of treatment approaches and utilizes the best possible therapeutic
