The Total Joint Program at Adventist La Grange Memorial Hospital in La Grange, Illinois is designed for healthy, active adults who would have a better quality of life with a joint replacement.

The Total Joint Program is comprehensive, offering:

• Free pre-operative patient education
• "Joint Camp" philosophy with emphasis on a wellness model through a team approach
• Use of Brain Lab technology, a navigation system that provides real-time 3D imaging, greatly enhancing the surgeon's precision during surgery
• Accelerated patient recovery through individualized pain management techniques, intensive post-operative rehabilitation on the unit and customized follow-up support
• Positive patient outcome data reflecting most patients are achieving independence in a 4 day hospital stay

The program's patient experience focuses on better, faster recovery through increased patient education, family involvement, specially trained staff providing great care, effective therapies and spiritual support for patients and family members.

From Our Patients 

“I just can’t say enough good things. I have never seen a department of a hospital function as well. My care has been exceptional.” - William Cox, Hinsdale  

“This unit just couldn’t have been better staffed. Everyone - nurses, therapists, everyone - was just great. What a remarkable experience.” - John Hymel, Darien  

“Thank you for the wonderful care I received while staying with you. Every person who was involved with getting me on the road to recovery was professional, dedicated and took a great deal of interest in my recovery. I appreciate that you were “just doing your job,” but you did it in a manner that made me feel not only pampered, but confident that I was in the best hands.” – Joint Replacement Unit patient
