After an operation, there may be several sets of information to keep track of. Bring the discharge notes and current instructions to your assessment, along with any questions about how they apply to your particular home and routine.
Your surgeon, veterinary practice and rehabilitation team each bring information to the conversation. Ask who will confirm changes to the plan, how updates are shared and what arrangements are in place for follow-up. This sample guide does not provide a recovery timetable.
