This requires speaking with stakeholders to understand the details of the surgeries, including what positions patients will be in during the surgeries and whether staff has the right tools or tables needed for the procedure. Additionally, ASC leaders need to do a walkthrough of their facility to examine the size of their rooms, where equipment will be positioned in the operating room during surgery, and where equipment will be stored when it isn’t in use. They should also evaluate existing storage and consider how to store the additional supplies that a total joint program requires.
