CHRISTUS Cabrini Joint Replacement Center
What to expect from the Joint Replacement Center?
The
Cabrini Joint Replacement Center’s Clinical Nurse Manager
works closely with the Orthopaedic Surgeons to begin providing
the education patients need days before their surgery. The patient tours
the Joint Center, meets the staff and is provided with information
that will prepare them for their surgery and recovery. All pre-admit testing
is performed on this visit as well. Physical Therapy is instrumental in achieving
the best outcomes with joint replacements and our team of experienced therapist
is second to none.
The physical and occupational therapists provide individualized therapy as well as education on exercises to be continued at home. Depending on the procedure performed, patients may be visited by physical therapists at home, or they may go to an out-patient facility for therapy. The success of any joint replacement surgery depends largely on the patient’s diligence in adhering to a therapy program and how they take care of themselves after being discharged.
