Joint Camp and Joint Journey

Most orthopaedic patients are different from other hospital patients. They aren't sick, they just have a bad hip or knee.

Our Joint Camp and Joint Journey programs focus on the unique needs of orthopaedic patients. You'll even wear your own exercise clothes instead of a hospital gown.

Both programs:

  • Have proven results
  • Help you smoothly progress from surgery to recovery
  • Emphasize wellness
  • Involve group rehabilitation exercises
  • Engage family and friends
  • Get high scores from past patients

Joint Camp

Located at Woodwinds, Joint Camp helps you return to your active lifestyle as quickly as possible.

If you're interested in making an appointment with an orthopedic specialist, let us know. As part of our Joint Camp program, we are able to offer priority appointment scheduling.

Joint Journey

At St. John’s and St. Joseph's hospitals, Joint Journey provides information and support from the time surgery is scheduled through the weeks and months following discharge from the hospital.

Joint Journey focuses on returning you home following a 1-3 day hospital stay. You'll be encouraged to follow an exercise and mobility training plan after surgery.

Joint replacement class
