Thanks...84 year old mother going in tomorrow...she is in extremely great shape for her age, and slim, so hoping for a great outcome. Also an incredible surgeon on the case...I am just trying to get my brain ready for what to expect as her caretaker. Thanks for the info.

The main thing as her caretaker will be driving her back & forth to therapy & helping with chores
Make sure she has a shower seat & can get in & out of bathroom with walker
Also make sure she stays on top of pain meds, especially before therapy
Best of luck

Hand hygiene, and keeping the incision clean is paramount. Infection in a Total Joint can be catastrophic.
