After a $3 million renovation, the Center for Joint Replacement has opened at the Newburgh campus to rave reviews from patients and families for enhanced care, comfort and beautiful, hotel-like environment. All of the rooms, on the seventh floor of St. Luke's Cornwall Hospital’s Newburgh campus, are private and feature upscale amenities including flat-screen TVs, in-suite sinks and breathtaking mountain or river views.
Our dedicated team of surgeons, nurses and rehabilitation specialists is trained to provide progressive care that gets patients back on their feet in a supportive and friendly environment. The multidisciplinary, “best practices” model of care includes pre-surgery classes where patients meet the physical therapists, nurses and other caregivers on the team. After surgery, group physical therapy classes and meals just for joint replacement patients create a sense of camaraderie and support. Loved ones are encouraged to participate as coaches, working with the patients and therapists every step of the way.
As the region’s newest, most comprehensive Center for Joint Replacement, SLCH is quickly becoming the center of choice for those requiring hip or knee replacement.
