My Patient Education Toolkit

The personalized Surgical Patient Education Toolkit offers the entire ACS Patient Education library plus reviewed NCI and NIH content that applies to surgery.

The platform delivers point of care surgical education to help patients understand the procedure, make informed decisions, and confidently manage their entire perioperative experience from prep to home care.

• Comprehensive coverage of procedures, medications, quit smoking, questions to ask, and safe pain control for general, pediatric, vascular, cardiothoracic, and vascular procedures. All include preoperative preparation, operation description and options, common risks and benefits and links to the ACS Risk calculator, post-operative home and pain management plan, and when to call your surgeon.
• An extensive video library for home care management—colostomy, ileostomy, urostomy, feeding tubes, central lines, five wound care trainings (lacerations, surgical incisions, drains and tubes, complex dressings, ulcer, vascular and diabetic wound management), and surgical cancer videos for lung and breast cancer.
• Full-color illustrations to optimize learning
• All programs are written in plain language to help patients understand their care.

You have control of the content displayed including the ability to publish your own patient education content. The Toolkit can be personalized with your professional practice and surgical expertise. The toolkit can reside on your practice site, and you can send content direct to patients. Find out more.
