From the Innovator
"The PSMT is important to me because I have seen that what I do has a real impact on the lives of Veterans. One Veteran who used it told me that it 'changed his life'. He 'finally' understood how to properly use his prosthetic socks and a wound he had for a long time was finally beginning to heal. He also used the accompanying infographic to explain his amputation to his grandkids. He was so appreciative."
"Through the development of the PSMT I learned that I was not just a task do-er, but also an innovator. I saw myself in a new light and have been inspired to bring this exciting possibility of personal transformation to my VA colleagues."
