Is rehab education staying current with academic medicine and including the largest healthcare consumers in the world: Women? If so, where are the rehab and early recovery protocols after the most commonly performed major surgeries in the world including cesarean section, hysterectomy, and mastectomy? In this 1-hour workshop with Rebeca Segraves, you will learn how to develop early recovery care plans called rehab protocols, that prioritize the mental and physical function of patients who currently lack early access to occupational and physical therapy to enhance their recovery after major procedures.
