El Hospital de Dénia It is the best valued center in the hip prosthesis approach with osteoarthritis. The correct development of this process, together with the excellent score in three others, has made him a champion of the Top 20 in the Musculoskeletal section.
Teamwork, reducing the average stay, surgical techniques and early rehabilitation are the main reasons for this recognition. For Dr. Nuria Franco, Chief of the Orthopedic Surgery and Traumatology Service, this is due to the work of a very broad team consisting of surgical programming, anesthetists, warders, assistants, nurses, traumatologists, rehabilitators, physiotherapists, hematologists and geriatricians.
The Head of the Rehabilitation Service, Álvaro Escuder, also agrees on the importance of multidisciplinary work. In addition, adds Escuder, "The key to success is that, apart from that we like what we do, we put the patient at the center of the process and manage each case individually; in this way we avoid delays and reverberating consultations".
For his part, Mariano Martín-Macho, Supervisor of Physiotherapy, highlights "the importance of Prosthetic Schools in which we train patients before surgery so that they know the process and improve in self-care, both preoperative and postoperative".
