Post-Surgery In-Home Care 

Surgery and hospital stays are a fact of life, and many procedures can help seniors continue to enjoy their lifestyle while living comfortably at home. However, in the days, weeks, and months following a hospital stay, you or your loved one may need extra assistance around the home to monitor their health, avoid injury, and exercise to get back to their normal routine.

When post-hospital recovery calls for a helping hand, Living Life at Home is ready to step in. Our referred caregivers provide compassionate support customized to the needs of your loved ones. 

Find the right caregiver for the important people in your life with our team.

What Is Temporary Home Care After Surgery?

Life can change in many ways for seniors after surgery, depending on the type of procedure. Spinal surgery often leads to reduced mobility as muscles and nerves heal, while cardiovascular, respiratory, or intestinal surgeries can require restricted movement, dietary changes, and increased monitoring for proper healing. On top of that, minor procedures, such as LASIK or dental work, can temporarily impact a senior’s ability to complete daily tasks.

With this in mind, even seniors who typically do not need in-home care services can benefit from temporary support during their recovery. Having a caregiver assist with tasks like meal preparation, medication reminders, and mobility support can ease the transition from hospital to home and promote a safer, more comfortable healing process.

How Caregivers Can Improve Home Health After Surgery

Preparing the home for post-surgical recovery is an important first step. Our caregivers can help organize the home by moving furniture to create a clear walking path, ensuring hallways are well-lit, and assisting with household tasks that may be difficult during recovery.

From cooking and light housekeeping to transportation for follow-up appointments, caregivers are there to take the burden off the shoulders of your loved ones as they recover. 

The skilled caregivers we refer come with a wide range of specializations, including:

• RNs
• LPNs
• CNAs
• HHAs
• Companion caregivers

This flexibility allows us to refer qualified professionals who best meet the unique needs of your loved one. If they require assistance with dietary support, medication management, or specialized post-operative care, our network of experienced caregivers is here to provide compassionate and professional support for as long as needed.
