Your healthcare team has worked together to create this protocol and will be there to support you during the entire process.  \nThe goal of this program is to help you:  \n􀁸 Recover more quickly  \n􀁸 Experience less pain  \n􀁸 Decrease your risk of complications such as blood clot or serious infection  \nResearch shows that you will recover faster if you follow the instructions and do the things explained in this booklet. Preparing mentally and emotionally for surgery and recovery is very important. There are instructions about eating and drinking, physical activity, and controlling your pain. Doing these things will help you feel better faster and get home sooner.  \nPlease bring this booklet with you on the day of surgery. Use it as a guide during your hospital stay. Hospital staff may refer to it as you recover, and will review it with you when you get ready to go home.  \nHaving surgery can be stressful for patients and their families. The good news is that you are not alone. We will support you each step of the way.  \nPlease ask us at any time if you have questions about your care.  \nDATE of SURGERY:   \nSCHEDULED TIME OF SURGERY:   \nTIME TO ARRIVE AT THE HOSPITAL:   \n2  \nBEFORE YOUR SURGERY:  \nPreparing for Surgery  \n1. MEDICAL CLEARANCE  \nIf your surgeon tells you that you will need medical clearance from your primary care physician (PCP) , please make that appointment within 30 days before your surgery.  \n2. ACTIVITY  \nExercise will help your body to be as fit as possible and keep your weight under control. If you are already active, keep it up. If not, please try to begin exercising.  \nEven a minimum of 15 minutes per day is beneficial. This does not need to be strenuous.  \n3. STOP SMOKING!!  \nIf you smoke , stop before your surgery to reduce the risk of lung problems and other complications. Your PCP can help you stop smoking by prescribing medications if necessary.  \n4. RESTRICT ALCOHOL  \nDo not drink alcohol for at least 24 hours before surgery. Alcohol can interact with medications. If you need help decreasing your alcohol use before surgery , let us know.  \n5. PLAN AHEAD  \nYou may need help with meals, laundry, bathing, or cleaning when you go home from the hospital. Stock your fridge and freezer with food that is easy to reheat. Make plans with your family and friends so you will have the help you need. If you don’t have family and friends immediately available the first few days, please ask about getting a list of possible external agency resources that may be available for hire for a few days.  \n6. ARRANGE TRANSPORTATION  \nThe day of surgery is Day 0. The plan is for you to go home from the hospital as soon as Day 2. Please arrange a ride for early afternoon on the day you go home.  \n7. PICK UP SUPPLIES AND ANY PRESCRIPTIONS  \nYour surgeon may order antibiotic prescriptions for you to take on the day prior to surgery. If so, those should be picked up from your pharmacy along with other supplies mentioned on pages 5 and 6 of this booklet: Hibiclens (4% chlorhexidine)– an over the counter skin cleanser; carbohydrate rich fruit or other drinks; and clear liquids to drink the day prior to surgery.  \n8. CANCELLING  \nIf you get sick, or other issues arise that make it necessary for you to reschedule your surgery, please call your surgeon’s office as soon as possible at:  \n.  \n3  \n9. EXPECT OUR CALL  \nA day or two before your surgery , staff from the following areas will contact you:  \nA. Hospital Admitting Department  \n􀁸 A staff member will call to verify your insurance coverage.
