The Ready for Recovery program is a 6-week, multicomponent, tailored, prehabilitation intervention to promote the optimization of medical and psychological status prior to surgery. Its key components include education, enhancement of beneficial health behaviors, reduction of negative psychological symptoms, and the promotion of social support.
