Summary
This study will test a special rehabilitative nursing care program based on human caring theory for frail patients undergoing knee replacement and their caregivers. Researchers will compare the program to standard care in 50 patient-caregiver pairs. The goal is to see if the program reduces caregiver burden and improves satisfaction for both patients and caregivers.

- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a simple, low-cost way to improve recovery and reduce caregiver stress after knee replacement surgery.
