Early Bird by February 1, 2024 In this class, you will learn ways to assist your clients who are having, or who have had knee replacement surgery.
Topics will include an overview of the knee replacement surgical process and anesthesia, preoperative care, i.e., the important areas to work with the day/night prior to surgery, postoperative care, i.e., the day of surgery and beyond.
This class will also include ways to work with common postoperative issues such as difficulty with knee flexion and extension, fear/trauma, incision care, swelling, and pain.
