Recovery following surgery requires careful attention that family members may not be able to provide alone
Our caregivers receive training in post-operative support, mobility assistance and symptom monitoring. We follow discharge instructions from your medical team and help prevent complications through proper care routines. Each plan is built around the specific procedure, recovery timeline, physician orders and individual needs.
Our after surgery services address the full range of post-operative needs during home recovery.
We assist with medication reminders and tracking, mobility support and fall prevention, assistance with personal hygiene routines, meal preparation following dietary restrictions, light wound care observation and reporting, transportation to follow-up appointments, household tasks and errands, and companionship during recovery. Each service is delivered with attention to comfort, healing and respect for the recovery process.
We support safe movement from bed to chair, walking assistance with proper devices, and gentle encouragement to follow physical therapy exercises.
We organize prescriptions, provide timely reminders, track dosing schedules, and watch for side effects or concerns.
We prepare meals that match post-surgery dietary needs, adapt textures for comfort, and monitor appetite and hydration.
We observe for signs of infection, help keep the area clean and dry, and report any changes to medical providers
We create quiet, comfortable spaces for healing, help manage pain and discomfort, and support restful sleep patterns.

Your plan includes steady, two-way communication in the way you prefer. We share clear observations about progress, symptoms, pain levels, mobility improvements, appetite and mood, and we listen to your concerns as recovery advances. We build in caregiver respite so family members can rest while knowing their loved one is in capable hands. We offer practical guidance about warning signs to watch for and when to contact medical providers. If you want us to, we coordinate with physicians and can join follow-up appointments to help share observations and recovery goals.
Most of all, we protect dignity. We encourage participation in self-care as abilities return, provide emotional support during a challenging time, and celebrate milestones along the recovery path. Our support is for your loved one and for you.
