Description
Our total joint class supports you on your path to living with a new hip, knee, or shoulder. We can help reduce your anxiety, control your pain, and help you learn what to expect during your recovery.
You will:
- Gain knowledge and tools to ensure your surgery and recovery are smooth
- Interact with a variety of health care professionals
- Prepare your body and home for surgery and recovery
- Learn what to expect at the hospital
- Learn how to manage post-surgery pain
- Learn what physical and occupational therapy options are available
This class is for patients, coaches, and caregivers. We strongly recommend you bring a "coach," a friend or family member who will support you through your joint replacement surgery and recovery.
We meet Mondays from 1-3 p.m. and Fridays from 10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
