Red Flags & When to Seek Help is a free CarePlanCompass™ Quick Resource that helps you write down the warning signs after surgery that your care team has said need help, and know what to do.

It is also part of the CarePlanCompass™ Guide Coming Home After Surgery. It is educational and organizational support and does not replace individualized medical, rehabilitation, or provider guidance. If you think it is an emergency, call 911. Fillable on screen or printable.
