Post-operative & Restorative Care
Our highly qualified personnel can contribute to a seamless recuperation process following surgery. For a variety of procedures, including joint replacement surgery, cataract operations, cardiology or neurosurgery, we provide non-medical home care.
It may require some time for a patient to fully recuperate following surgery or an operation. A specified care regimen may need to be followed by patients for a few weeks or even months. Elderly individuals may require considerably longer recovery periods.
Family members and friends frequently provide post-operative care, but juggling these responsibilities with their other commitments such as employment and childcarecan be taxing.
Depending on your needs, we can offer home health care help for a few hours each day or all day long.
