Concierge Surgical Nurses
Outpatient Surgical Recovery Suites nurses are highly trained in post operative orthopedic joint replacement patient care. In-room monitoring and the primary care of up to six residents, the OSRS staff is dedicated to providing a safe and pain controlled recovery. Constant interaction with our nursing team will help answer your questions and concerns while preparing you for a smooth transition from our home to yours.
OSRS nurses will assist you in the administration of pain medication including any medication you take everyday at home. Their constant access to your surgeon and internal medicine consulting physicians result in the safest recovery possible following a hip or knee replacement.
Physical Therapy
The physical therapist and therapy assistant are available around the clock. Their job is to focus on your recovery and your transition to recovering at home after your brief stay with Outpatient Surgical Recovery Suites. The afternoon of surgery you will be evaluated and begin therapy with anesthesia based pain control including a regional sensory nerve block designed to provide pain relief with near normal muscle function. Constant access to our physical therapist enables you to maximize the recovery of your new hip or knee.
The end goal is early movement, prevention of complications and an education in transition to therapy at home.
