Having more specialty programs means that our professional staff is credentialed, has greater knowledge and more expertise dealing with very specific situations. From hip and knee replacements to specialized cardiac care and more, our patients have better clinical outcomes and recover quickly in the comfort, privacy and security of their own homes.

Great Lakes Ortho/Neuro teams are your best choice in home care. With over 100 years of Ortho/Neuro staff experience, you can be sure that our team has the clinical skill required to help patients get better. Our team approach means constant communication between team members and physicians to ensure that your care protocols are followed exactly.

There are a host of advantages to choosing recovery in the home. Patients are in familiar, comfortable surroundings that foster self-reliance, and increased activity. Since they’re at home, their family will be able to take a greater involvement in the healing process as well.

At Great Lakes we will also do their pre-op in the comfort of their own homes. They’ll be more alert and less distracted, so they’ll better understand the operation and the post op procedures that follow. While we’re in their home, we’ll also do a home safety evaluation, and prepare their home for the special needs they may have upon returning from the hospital. Historically, home care and home pre-op lead to shorter hospital stays, quicker recovery, and less chance of secondary infection. We can even prepare the medical supplies they’ll need after your operation, making the trip home easier.

Whether it’s a hip replacement, knee replacement, or a neurological operation, Great Lakes is the right choice. With nearly two centuries of combined experience on our team, we will provide the superior quality care your patients’ deserve in the comfort, security, and privacy of their own homes.
