Comprehensive care designed to meet your goals

Ask yourself these questions...joint commission award

  • Do you find yourself avoiding daily activities you like to do because your hip hurts?
  • Does your hip hurt after walking a short distance?
  • Does your hip pain make it increasingly difficult to get in and out of a car or go up or down stairs?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above, discuss with your doctor if you are a candidate for a total hip replacement.

You will receive instruction in proper exercise and how to walk and move about with your new hip.

Upon discharge from the hospital, you and your surgeon will decide whether a stay at a rehabilitation facility to further your recovery is necessary.

If not, outpatient rehabilitation is available at our Health and Rehabilitation Center. Your rehabilitation schedule can be arranged prior to your discharge from the hospital.

You Are Not Alone!

The first total hip replacement was performed in 1960. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality reports that more than 285,000 total hip replacements are performed each year in the United States. Such surgeries help individuals who experience pain and loss of motion and strength that adversely affect their daily lives and their ability to engage in social and athletic activities.
