Are you ready for your knee replacement?

What will you do in the two weeks before surgery? You need a clear checklist for the final 14 days before knee replacement — so you know exactly what to prepare, what to expect, and how to set yourself up for a smoother first week after surgery.

The two weeks before surgery can feel like equal parts anticipation and uncertainty. This guide organizes the entire T-14 through day-of process into simple, practical steps — so you’re not scrambling, guessing, or overwhelmed.

    What You’ll Get Inside

    This work isn’t physical training — it’s preparation: your home, your equipment, your support, your paperwork, and your mindset. A clean, two-week countdown that covers:

    • T-14 to T-8: Home prep, safety setup, support planning, equipment checks
    • T-7 to T-1: Bathroom setup, walker prep, skin prep, paperwork, clothing
    • Surgery Day: What to bring, what to wear, and how to steady your system
    • Practical reminders you’ll wish you had if you didn’t plan ahead
    • Brief, calming mindset moments worked into the timeline
    • Evidence-based, surgeon-aligned pre-op preparation guidance

    Everything is laid out day-by-day so you don’t have to think — just follow the plan.
