PREHABILITATION

Prehab is an opportunity for patients to become pro-active in their recovery, even before their surgery takes place.

This includes:

• Education about the hospital stay
• Precautions and contra-indications post-surgery
• Aerobic training and strength training
• Functional task training e.g. crutch walking and stair-climbing, to suit individual needs
• Becoming acquainted with the rehab team
