Hip Replacement Ready Kit - Everything You Need Before You Come Home

The most common comment from people in the first week after hip surgery is that they wish they'd been more prepared at home.

This kit removes that regret. Everything in it serves a specific, practical purpose in those critical early weeks and together they support the two things that matter most right now. Safety and independence.

Long Reach Grabber
Your surgeon will likely tell you not to bend past 90 degrees for around six weeks. That means no reaching to the floor for anything. Dropped sock, TV remote, shoes. This grabber handles all of it without you breaking a single precaution.

Leg Lifter Strap
Getting in and out of bed and in and out of a car are two of the hardest transfers in the early days after hip surgery. The leg lifter loops around your foot and lets you guide your leg where it needs to go safely, independently, and without straining anyone helping you.

Orthopaedic Knee Pillow
After a hip replacement, how you sleep matters. Your surgeon will give you specific positioning instructions typically sleeping on your back or non-operative side with a pillow between your legs. This pillow is purpose built for exactly that. It stays in place through the night with a secure button strap so you're not chasing a regular pillow around at 3am.

Don't wait until after surgery to set this up. The best time to prepare your home is before you go in when you have the energy and mobility to do it properly.

Keep the grabber on your bedside table, in the bathroom, and in the kitchen. Have the leg lifter attached and ready on your bed before you come home from hospital. Put the knee pillow in position before your first night back.

Small preparation. Big difference.
