Surgery and Therapy departments team up for successful recovery
November 26, 2018
The Surgical Department and the Therapy Department at Lawrence County Memorial Hospital have teamed up to create a plan for successful recovery post surgery.
Surgery while medically necessary can be debilitating. Pain and swelling are common complications of surgical procedures which often lead to weakness and difficulty moving.
The therapy team at Lawrence County Memorial Hospital is ready to assist the hospitals new General Surgeon Doctor Faris A. AL-Gebory and the surgical team to resolve these mobility issues.
Rather than having multiple doctors or hospitalist oversight, having one provider in charge of the recovery process streamlines communication between support staff, patients and their family.
The therapy team works with Dr.AL-Georgy’s direct orders so the care provided to get his patients up and going does not interfere with the healing process.
Lawrence County Memorial Hospital holds value in a team approach to helping patients recover from surgical procedures.
