Kindness Matters
Post-Surgery Care
Your Health Matters Most
The long-term success of any surgery depends on a variety of factors. You're sure to choose the best doctors and hospitals, so why should your post-surgery care be any different? Having an experienced and caring person by your side to make sure your recovery is as smooth and easy as possible, is invaluable to make the outcome of your surgery as successful as you hoped for.
From the moment you leave the hospital, we will take care of everything else, so you can put all your energy into allowing and assisting your body to heal itself.

Post Surgery Care Offerings:
-
Comprehensive Pre- and Post-Surgery Planning
Beginning with a pre-surgery consultation, I'll prepare a personalized care plan that includes home preparation for a safe recovery, coordination with your doctors, and management of your medication and supplements.
-
Full-Service Transportation Support
I can provide transportation, including travel to/from the surgery location, as well as reliable transport for post-surgery hospital visits, physical therapy sessions, and follow-up appointments. Comfortable driving your car if it’s more suitable and comfortable for you.
-
Essential Errand Running
To ease your recovery, I take care of essential errands such as picking up prescriptions, groceries, and any other care items you might need, ensuring a smooth and stress-free recuperation at home.
-
Personal Care and Mobility Assistance
Offering hands-on assistance with daily tasks like showering, hygiene, and teaching how to use mobility aids like braces, slings, walkers, and crutches, I ensure your comfort and support in every aspect of daily living. Together we will learn how to use icing devices and any other healing devices as recommended by your medical professionals.
-
Nutrition and Environment Management
I focus on creating a healing environment by cooking healthy meals and snacks, maintaining calmness at home, and managing household chores like laundry, light cleaning, and pet care.
-
Extended Support and Emotional Care
If round-the-clock attention is needed, I offer overnight stays for continuous care. Additionally, I provide emotional support through methods like Bach flower remedies and collaborate with specialists like healer Rodney Blount when required.
-
Working with your Medical Team
I am a care giver and not in any way a medical professional. I follow doctor’s orders and reach out to your medical team for support. My own personal healing methodologies may be discussed and looked into, but in general I follow your and your doctor’s healing porotocols.
-
Medication Chart and Schedule
After surgery it is almost impossible to figure out all the prescriptions you are sent home with. Especially while recovering from anesthesia and taking pain meds - I will create a personalized chart and schedule which will be easy to follow once you or someone else starts being in charge of it.
Kindness, Compassion, Excellence
After surgery, there are countless things to take care of and worry about while being mentally, emotionally, and physically restricted. We create a calm, safe, supportive environment so you can direct all of your energy to the process of healing and getting back on your feet as fast, and safely, as possible.
I am available for any of your needs, 24/7,
no matter how big or small.
After an initial meeting, we will determine the most beneficial plan for you. Whether it is a few hours a day, a few days a week, or an extended 24/7 in-home care need, we will help you feel safe, secure, and well taken care of during your time of recovery and healing.
