Activities of Daily Living (ADL)

An ADL (Activities of Daily Living) visit focuses on enhancing your ability to perform daily tasks independently and safely after surgery. During this one-time session, our skilled therapist will provide personalized education and adaptive techniques to help you navigate challenges in activities such as dressing, bathing, and household mobility, ensuring you heal comfortably and effectively. We highly recommend this visit prior to a total knee or total hip replacement.
