Post-Op Support
After a serious surgery people may be required to have a care attendant for 24 hours
or longer when they are at the highest risk of a fall or post-op complications.
Skilled Caregivers can be there to provide:
- Post-op presence for safety
- Assistance with daily personal care
- Meal prep
- Light housekeeping
- Reassurance and emotional support
- Post-op Assessments by a Home Nurse are available to provide peace of mind and clinical perspective on the healing and recovery of the incision or wound.
- Home Nursing for Wound Care is also available.
Pro-tip: Surgery with anesthesia requires 24h post-op monitoring by family, friends or a caregiver. Rare but serious side effects can include airway obstruction, aspiration, excessive bleeding and higher risk of injury due to temporary cognitive impairment at a vulnerable time.
