AnnotationWell-coordinated care delivered through a joint replacement care team consisting of primary and secondary health professionals would make the journey from pre-operative preparation to post-operative rehabilitation while undergoing elective arthroplasty a more pleasant experience. The authors discuss how this would maximise limited health and social care resources, and contribute towards achieving a patient-focused NHS. (RH).
