I have worked with the team at myrecovery and with physiotherapists to create a customised app. This app supports you for both your surgery and rehabilitation. The myrecovery app does not replace any of the standard physiotherapy or support.
Although we have access to a plethora of information I find that patients often feel that there are gaps. This is where healthcare has some catching up to do compared with other services. I hope the myrecovery app will empower you to take control of your rehabilitation. You should have greater confidence in the process. It will provide you with post-operative instructions and collect data on your progress. It is what I would want if I were having surgery.
Rehabilitation with the myrecovery app
This app forms a crucial part of your treatment. You will find a range of helpful resources to inform, support and empower you throughout your journey to recovery:
- Important video updates
- Interactive exercise plans
- Tools to track your progress
- Peer-reviewed articles
- Reliable information
At myrecovery, our aim is to improve the experience of having surgery. We do this by informing, empowering and enabling people to engage with their own care and prepare for each stage of their road to recovery.
