One Stop Post-Op Model of Care
The Heart Center of Greater Waterbury is the first advanced cardiac care program in Connecticut to use the “One-Stop Post Op” model for recovery.
Similar to the model often used now in maternity wards — where an expectant mother goes through labor, delivery and recovery in the same room — One-Stop Post Op improves a patient’s care and experience by eliminating multiple room transfers.
What exactly does One-Stop Post Op mean?
One-Stop Post Op means that from admission to discharge, with the exception of surgical procedures, a patient is in the same bed in the same room, rather than being moved to two or three different rooms, as their recovery progresses.
