Having surgery can be intimidating — and let’s be honest, anxiety-inducing.
Enter: Novant Health’s spine navigators.
Studies show that having a navigator helps improve surgical outcomes and patient satisfaction while decreasing pre-surgical anxiety and post-surgical readmission and emergency visit rates.
A spine navigator can:
- Provide a single point of contact throughout the entire process
- Walk patients through their surgery in detail
- Create a discharge plan before surgery so patients know what to expect
