What does this involve?
Orthopaedic liaison nursing support helps patients understand preparation, admission and recovery. A pre-admission discussion gives you and your family time to ask questions.
What should you prepare or check?
Support may include discharge planning, wound care and guidance about rehabilitation or daily living needs. Arrangements are tailored to your procedure and circumstances.
Common questions
Can preparation be discussed by phone?
A phone discussion may be possible where appropriate. Ask the team how your pre-admission review will be arranged.
What happens if I have a wound concern?
Contact your treating team promptly for advice. They can assess the concern and arrange review where needed.
