Certification and Accreditation

The American Board for Certification in Orthotics and Prosthetics Inc., (ABC) strives to meet the following goals:

• To promote the welfare of the physically challenged by establishing industry standards.

• To promote high standards of workmanship.

• To encourage the maintenance of adequate facilities and the use of adequately trained personnel.

• To encourage, foster and promote honest dealings and fair trade practices.

An ABC certified practitioner is an allied health professional who is specifically educated and clinically trained to manage the provision of comprehensive orthotic and prosthetic care, based upon a clinical assessment and a physician's prescription, to restore physiological function and/or cosmesis.

As the practitioner responsible for all patient care, the certified practitioner independently provides or supervises the provision of comprehensive orthotic and prosthetic care. This includes patient assessment, formulation of a treatment plan, implementation of the treatment plan, follow-up, and practice management. In addition, the certified prosthetist and/or orthotist is obligated to support and conform to the professional responsibilities which promote and assure the overall welfare of the patient and the integrity of the profession.
