Participants needed for research in quality of care for hip and knee replacement rehabilitation
Have you had a hip or knee replacement in the last 4 months?
Are you interested in being able to give feedback on the quality of rehabilitation care you received?
You are invited to take part in a study to pilot test a new questionnaire on the quality of rehabilitation care after joint replacement surgery.
Your feedback will help us to develop a patient-friendly questionnaire that will be included in an online toolkit of print and web-based resources that help people having joint replacement surgery participate in their own care and track the quality of rehab received.
You can participate if you:

- Have almost finished or just finished your supervised rehabilitation
- Are 19 years of age or older
- Speak and read English

- Thursday, August 23rd 10-11:30am and 1-2:30pm
