Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether receiving education after trauma surgeries affects three things: 1) knowledge about injury and treatment ("recall"), 2) how well patients follow treatment recommendations, and 3) how satisfied patients are with their care. To do so, some participants in this study will receive education, and some will not.
