How can I prepare for open heart recovery at home?
I'm scheduled for Mitral Valve replacement next month (OCTOBER) and would like any info on how and what I can do now to prepare for a comfortable home recovery. I live in a 2nd story condo with a flight of stairs.
What other useful equipment is recommended, like a shower seat, and a recliner to sleeping during the first few weeks.
Any other tips?
Thank you.
