Our Orthopaedic team has developed a series of video guides for patients undergoing surgery at the Trust.
The purpose of the videos are to explain what will happen before, during and after your operation and what is expected of you at each stage of your care, and to enhance your recovery.
Research shows that exercise, as soon as you are able after joint replacement surgery, can enhance your recovery. If you have any questions, please contact your healthcare professional.
