Center for Joint Replacement

If you or someone you know is experiencing hip or knee pain, joint replacement surgery may be your best bet for returning to an active, pain-free life.

This program enables small groups of patients having hip or knee replacement surgery to go through the process of pre-surgical education, surgery, rehabilitation, and discharge together.

The only program of its kind in County, Regional's Joint Academy program offers a new approach to orthopedic care. "The program was designed after thorough investigation of best practices in thenation. The result has been a program that is superior in outcomes," says Jose F. Morillo, chief executive officer of the hospital. "Our goal is to offer our patients the best possible experience."

At Joint Academy, the goal is to deliver the finest care and quickest road to recovery. The specially trained orthopedic team at Regional Medical Center creates an individual care plan for each patient, working together to alleviate fears and boost rehabilitation.
