Recover Stronger with Elara Caring’s Joint Venture Program

For many people living with chronic hip or knee pain, joint replacement surgery can be life-changing. These procedures are most often recommended when arthritis, injury or wear and tear make it difficult to move without pain.

But while surgery is an important first step, the real work of recovery happens afterward. Healing takes time, and patients need the right support to manage pain, rebuild strength and safely return to everyday activities. That’s where Elara Caring’s Joint Venture program makes all the difference.

Why Joint Replacement Recovery Matters

After surgery, patients often face challenges like pain, fatigue, difficulty with mobility and the need to manage new medications. Daily activities—from walking and bathing to climbing stairs—can feel overwhelming without guidance. Rehabilitation, proper symptom management and education are key to ensuring a smooth recovery and preventing unnecessary hospital readmissions.

Skilled Home Health Support

Joint Venture is part of Elara Caring’s skilled home health services, which provide medical care in the comfort of home. Skilled nurses, physical and occupational therapists, and social workers create a personalized plan of care designed to restore strength, mobility, and independence. This in-home support reduces the risk of complications and helps patients follow their recovery plan safely.

Tools for Success

Every Joint Venture patient receives our Interactive Patient Guide, a resource designed to promote communication and learning between patients and clinicians. It covers essential topics such as transitioning home safely, managing pain and fatigue, regaining mobility and coping with anxiety or emotional challenges. By encouraging active engagement in the recovery process, the guide empowers patients to take control of their healing journey.

Personal Care Services

In addition to skilled clinical care, personal care services can help patients with recovery. Personal care aides can assist with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, light housekeeping and medication reminders. These services help patients stay safe, maintain independence and focus on healing, while giving family members peace of mind.

A True Partnership in Recovery

Our care teams walk alongside patients throughout post-surgical rehabilitation, ensuring they have the guidance, resources and encouragement needed to achieve a strong, healthy recovery.
