A hit-and-run after work hours left Sutrisno bin Saimin with severe hand injury that would impair his daily routines, both at home and at work. But with access to rehabilitation through PERKESO’s Lindung 24 Jam scheme, Sutris shares what his recovery journey was like, how he’s adapting to life with impaired mobility, and why having a round-the-clock social safety net matters. We also hear from occupational therapist Ahmad Yazid bin Jus about the role of occupational therapy in recovery from hand injuries.
