Your Hospital Stay: Comfort, Recovery, Pain-Free Function

The finest post-operative care will be available to you through Trinitas Regional Medical Center. Your comfort and meeting your needs are what drive the services you will receive. Your rehabilitation will begin the day of surgery and will continue twice daily throughout your hospital stay. You will receive instruction in proper exercise and how to walk and move about with your new knee.

Restoring you to your highest level of function is our main goal.

Upon discharge from the hospital, you and your surgeon will decide whether a stay at a rehabilitation facility to further your recovery is necessary.

If not, outpatient rehabilitation is available at our Health and Rehabilitation Center. Your rehabilitation schedule can be arranged prior to your discharge from the hospital.

You are not alone!

The American Academy of Orthopedics reports that 500,000 total knee replacement surgeries are performed each year. Such surgeries help individuals who experience pain and loss of motion and strength that adversely effects their daily lives and their ability to engage in social and athletic activities. While most knee replacements surgeries are performed on those over age 65, more and more people under that age have successfully undergone knee replacement. No matter the age of the patient, decreased pain and increased function are the main goals of knee replacement surgery.
