Your Lung Operation Home Skills Program
The Your Lung Operation Skills Program provides patients needing a lung
resection with the knowledge and training to support full participation and
optimal recovery. The program includes a 20-page booklet and a 30-minute
DVD with an overview of the lungs and procedure options, preoperative
preparation, cancer staging, potential risks of procedures, discharge
information and home care instructions. Separate information sheets include lung
images for the surgeon to review and use for drawing, medication lists, exercise
and pulmonary rehab activity guides, and quit smoking resources. All Joint
Commission safety guidelines are incorporated such as site marking, ID band
checks, and pneumonia and DVT prevention strategies. The Your Lung Operation
Skills Program was developed by a multidisciplinary program of the American
College of Surgeons Division of Education and has been funded in part by a grant
from Ethicon Endo-Surgery.
