Healing at Home: Postoperative Surgical Dressing Care

To help you properly care for your incisions after surgery, your surgeon may order a HealPACK containing medical supplies and instructions for changing your surgical dressings at home.

If that is the case, your HealPACK will be delivered to your home 2 to 3 days after your surgery (or on Monday if your surgery is on Friday).
