Post-Surgical Care
Not All Surgical Recoveries Happen in the Hospital
Many medical procedures are now routine outpatient events, allowing patients to return home to recover in a familiar and comfortable environment. Home often provides the best setting for rest and healing.
We understand that caring for a parent or loved one after surgery can be challenging, especially when time and energy are limited. Without the right support, recovery can be slower and may even result in a return to the hospital.
That’s where we come in!
What Is Post-Surgery Transitional Care?
Post-surgical care is the support provided immediately after surgery and throughout the recovery period. It focuses on helping you heal and regain your strength effectively.
This type of care is particularly valuable for those with memory challenges or difficulties reading small print, as it can be tough to follow the doctor’s instructions for medications, diet, and other care needs after leaving the hospital.
At True Choice Home Health, we’re here to support your recovery with RN-supervised caregivers who assist you at home. Our team can help with:
Providing medication reminders at the correct times
Accompanying you to follow-up appointments
Preparing nutritious meals according to dietary restrictions
Offering friendly companionship for conversations and engaging activities during recovery
Assisting with physical therapy exercises
Handling light housekeeping and laundry
Providing personal care and hygiene support
Monitoring for any changes in condition or medication side effects and reporting them promptly
And much more to promote a smooth and comfortable healing process

Transitional Care FAQs
Do I need to do any advance planning?
Yes, it’s helpful to prepare in advance. Your doctor can provide an estimate of the recovery time. Before surgery, it may be beneficial to clean the home, shop for foods that meet dietary requirements, and ensure all aftercare instructions from the physician are clearly understood and any prescribed medications are picked up.
I’m worried about falling. Can you help?
Absolutely. We closely monitor each patient's recovery and assist with both small and large tasks. Our team can perform a safety assessment and provide ongoing support with walking, transferring, and rebuilding strength and stamina.
What if I need post-surgical care for only a day or two?
Our home care services are flexible and available for as short or as long as you need. We offer a range of customizable options tailored to meet each individual's unique care requirements.
