Video Description
Even though a patient’s medical team wants their patient to go back to their regular activities, work and even drive, patients need to keep in mind that their rehabilitation will affect the longevity of the joint replacement. Also, if a patient over extends himself or herself it will prolong the recovery. A patient needs to let someone help them. And they don’t necessarily need someone with them 24/7. For caregivers who go to the pre-op educational class, they can ask questions and hear other families’ questions. It helps everyone be on the same page. Jeri is fine with patients calling her many times to answer and questions. She loves her job and wants a happy and healthy patient.
