Joint Replacement Support
Joint Replacement Support: What You Can Expect
Once enrolled in our short-term rehab program, you’ll work closely with one of our experienced therapists, who will provide expert guidance and encouragement every step of the way.
You’ll receive a personalized rehabilitation program tailored to your unique needs and goals. We will help you improve your strength, increase your range of motion, and optimize the functionality of your new joint. You’ll also receive guidance on managing daily activities, like bathing, dressing, and cooking, to help you navigate life at home more safely and confidently.
Here’s what you can expect to gain from our program:
- Expert Rehabilitation to Regain Mobility
You’ll receive expert physical therapy focused on increasing strength, flexibility, and range of motion. These essential skills will help you regain independence and maximize the functionality of your new joint. - Pain Management
Our team will guide you through strategies to manage pain effectively, ensuring your recovery is as comfortable as possible while helping you progress toward your goals. - Support for Daily Activities
Our Occupational Therapists will provide practical guidance to help you relearn how to perform daily living activities, such as dressing, self-care, and meal preparation. This will increase your confidence and help you achieve your maximum possible level of independence. - Home Safety Adaptations
Our team will assess and recommend ways to help make your home safer and easier to navigate, especially if you use crutches, a walker, or a wheelchair. This includes advice on reducing the risk of falls and improving accessibility. - Exercises to Promote Progress
In addition to guided therapy sessions, we’ll teach you to perform exercises between visits to enhance your recovery and help you achieve the best possible outcome. - Wound Care
Our nursing team will care for your overall condition, change your dressings, and monitor the surgical site to ensure proper healing and comfort. - Personalized Care Timeline
Recovery time depends on several factors, including the joint that was replaced and the patient’s overall condition prior to surgery. Since every plan of care is developed to address each patient’s unique needs and goals, timelines will also vary. Your care team will provide feedback on an anticipated timeline based on your goals and follow up with progress updates.
