Our enhanced recovery program speeds up recovery and decreases the length of time patients need to spend in hospital. We provide consultant nurse-led classes for patients about to undergo hip and knee surgery, ensuring they are given all the necessary information ahead of surgery on what to expect.
Thanks to improvements in surgical and anaesthetic techniques over the years, it has been possible to reduce the length of stay in hospital for this type of surgery. We have now progressed towards day case joint replacement surgery for suitable patients with a comprehensive recovery package available in their own home. Our first day case knee replacement occurred in October 2019.
Joint school presentation
An essential part of the enhanced recovery program is the joint school education appointment prior to your surgery. You have the opportunity to receive information and education to prepare you for your hospital stay, your rehabilitation, and your recovery, and you are also given the opportunity to ask any questions.
