It can take our family a great deal of time to recover from surgery or to get over a serious illness. Prolonged inactivity during a period in hospital often results in loss of muscle strength and mobility, particularly if surgery left your loved one bedbound.

Furthermore, another important consideration is that general anaesthetics can have a damaging effect on memory function as we get older. Hence it will often take a person considerably longer to recover their strength and mental alertness after a stay in the hospital.

Our Post-Operative Care at Home is tailored to meet the needs of each individual client and will normally encompass help with mobility, wound dressing and infection control, and personal care.
