“This class prepares people for the time after the surgery,” says Shelly Deutmeyer, physical therapist assistant. “Most people receive a lot of information on how the surgery itself is performed, but have little information on what to expect afterward. Recovering from these surgeries often can be a long road, so we want to help people understand it.”

Topics of the class include the pain to expect, the extent of therapy done, the exercises people need to do, post-hospitalization options, the duration of outpatient therapy, and the kinds of support systems that exist. Jones Regional’s physical therapy staff will facilitate the class. Also, patients who have had this type of surgery will be there to offer insights.
 

To learn more about the class or to register, please call the therapy services department at 319-481-6327.  Meets second Monday of each month.
