Hopeful someone with medical experience can tell me who is / how that person is qualified to put a cast on. Watched today as it was applied part way, she started over, still couldn't get the foot right and I ended up going to get the doctor since I wasn't in the mood to watch another try. The doctor then changed the patient from laying on stomach with calf in the air, to sitting on table, supporting foot on metal device on the floor. That worked.

Both of my kids have only had them put on by doctors.

Who is "she"? A nurse? PA?

Only had one cast experience. It was put on by a cast technican sort of person....he was not an MD, but was very knowledgable and experienced.

FWIW,

Thank you for the replies.

She was the dr's nurse.

I hope that the healing is quick... Is this your child or you? Was it a bad break? Ouch!
