Prepare for Your Upcoming Spine Surgery
To ensure you are properly prepared for your spine surgery, you and your coach (home support person) are invited to attend an educational class. Class information is presented by registered nurses, physical therapists and occupational therapists.
Your Health Is Important To Us
All MyMichigan Health pre-operative spine surgery patients are required to complete a free education course, either online or in-person, prior to surgery.
You will learn what to expect before, during and after surgery to promote a smoother recovery and better outcomes.
Topics include:
