In-Home Care Referral for Post-Surgery Recovery
Statistics show that most people at some point in their lives will have surgery. A study by the National Center for Health Statistics found that there are around 50 million outpatient procedures and 46 million inpatient procedures each year. Undergoing a surgical procedure, whether planned or unplanned, can be a stressful experience. To help ease the worry and aid individuals during recuperation, we refer in-home care for post-surgery recovery.
Whether you’re having elective surgery or a medically necessary procedure, you should plan ahead for your recovery. Often times, you will be restricted in what you can or can’t do. Rather than risk injury by relying on self-care or be concerned about asking friends and family to take time off from work to assist you, an in-home caregiver referral is a simple option for your short-term or long-term needs.
In-home care referral for post-surgery recovery is ideal for anyone who:
- Lives alone
- Relies on help from people who work full-time
- Has small children
- Is traveling alone to South Florida for their procedure
- Needs assistance for a few hours a day
- Doesn’t want to worry about meals, maneuvering around the house, transportation, bathing, etc.
- Had a last minute emergency surgery
Surgery can happen at any stage of life. Regardless of your situation, your best bet is to create a plan for your healthcare prior to the procedure, if possible. Be sure to plan ahead for your post-surgery needs. This includes meals and any special dietary requirements; having caregivers available to assist you; arranging your home to accommodate your needs with easy access to your bed, bathroom and kitchen; and planning early for restricted movement.
