Greenville Public Library
October’s Lunch & Learn
The Greenville Public Library’s October Lunch & Learn welcomes Bill
Stall, Occupational Therapist from Wayne Healthcare, who will talk on
Repetitive Strain Injuries: Are You at Risk? Bill explains
”Repetitive strain injury has been around since people first began
repeating motions and carrying out manual labor. The first
description of repetitive strain injury (RSI) came from an Italian
physician in 1700.”
Today the main causes of RSI are manual labor, office work, and the use
of modern technological devices. Depending on your occupation you
may very well be at risk for developing a Repetitive Strain
Injury. Bill will be discussing the various types of RSI, the
causes, diagnoses, treatment, and prevention options.
Bill graduated in 1998 from the State University of New York at Buffalo
and currently resides in Coldwater. He has provided
rehabilitation services in a variety of settings and joined Wayne’s
Outpatient Rehabilitation in 2008. His main responsibility is
providing and overseeing the care of patients with hand/upper extremity
issues. Bill has been fascinated with “the hand” since his first
Anatomy class.
Lunch is at noon on Wednesday October 16th. You may buy the
Coffee Pot lunch for $5 or bring your own or just come for the
program! We usually have a wrap with soup or salad and always
fruit and drinks. Please register and let us know about lunch by
calling the Library at 548-3915.
