Preparing for Joint Replacement Surgery
HRRMC holds a monthly joint replacement prep class for anyone who is considering a joint replacement or is already scheduled for a joint replacement at HRRMC. The class is held the second Wednesday of every month, from 4 - 5 p.m., in the hospital's second-floor conference rooms.
If your physician decides you are a candidate for joint replacement surgery, be sure to discuss a few important factors with them.
- Implant design - Different patients have different lifestyles. Your new implant should be designed with your specific goals and daily activities in mind.
- What to expect after surgery - Joint implants require a certain degree of care. Be sure to discuss with your surgeon what the implant can and cannot handle, and what exercises will aid the implant in settling in.
- Keeping bones healthy - Walking and running help keep bones healthy. Talk with a physician about the exercise you will need if you decide to have the operation.
