Go Home the Same Day: A New Option for Hip & Knee Replacement Patients
If joint pain has been slowing you down, there’s encouraging news. MidAmerica Orthopaedics now offers an Outpatient Total Hip & Knee Replacement Program designed to help eligible patients have surgery and recover at home the very same day.
For many people, this approach feels less overwhelming than a hospital stay. You get expert surgical care—then head home to rest in your own bed, eat your own food, and start recovery in familiar surroundings.
What makes outpatient joint replacement different?
- Same-day discharge: No overnight hospital stay for many patients
- Comfort-focused recovery: Heal at home with clear guidance and support
- Lower infection risk: Less time in the hospital environment
- Faster return to daily life: Many patients get moving sooner than expected
