Summary Nearly two million Americans undergo elective orthopedic surgery each year. As a physical therapist who has spent more than seventeen years helping patients through recovery, author Elizabeth Kaufmann discusses the things that your surgeon usually doesn't cover: preparing your home upon return, understanding your hospital stay, getting the best care from the therapists, and dealing with pain throughout the healing process. You'll also learn the difference between a physical therapist and an occupational therapist; be ready for that first session; and find out the advantages of home therapy, subacute rehab, and outpatient therapy.
