Questions for post-surgical rehab
Ask whether the provider treats post-operative patients in the pool, whether a referral is required, and how they coordinate aquatic therapy with land-based physical therapy.
Confirm that the pool setup matches your current mobility level, especially if stairs, ladders, balance, transfers, or endurance are concerns.
Details to verify
Confirm water temperature, pool entry method, one-on-one support, session length, insurance participation, and when the provider typically allows patients to begin aquatic work after surgery.
