I had my pre-op at the hospital today. 7 hrs. Started with 2 hr classroom session for upcoming knee & hip recipients. Included a session with a blood specialist about donating blood, a physiotherapist about what to expect at home, what equipment to rent or buy. We were given and reviewed a 57 page binder with all sorts of info. There was plenty of time to answer all questions. There were 5 people in the class today.
Next came interviews with various nursing specialists, 2 internists, a anethetist (sp?), blood work, an ECG, and x-rays.
I was very impressed with the amount of info provided, the concern of the various staff and the whole program.
It's on the surgery, Aug 11 at 1:00 PM at Henderson Hospital, Hamilton, ON Canada.
