What is Post-Hospital Care?

Comfort Keepers aims to provide physical and emotional help for a seamless transition from hospital to home, assisting in the patient's recovery in a safe and comfortable environment.
Comfort Keepers offers a range of post-hospital home care services, such as assistance with daily activities like bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication reminders, light housekeeping, and help with mobility. Our professional caregivers are skilled in addressing the specific needs of each person they care for during post operative care.
We're With You from Hospital to Home
Due to physical limitations, seniors and adults may struggle when returning home after surgery or a hospital stay. The recovery process can make daily activities challenging, such as cooking, cleaning, and bathing. Being immobile for an extended period can lead to difficulties with these tasks. The loss of strength and stamina can make even simple activities feel overwhelming.
Upon discharge from the hospital, patients often need to handle various medications with complicated dosage routines and keep track of when to take them, which can be tricky due to frequent prescription adjustments. Our compassionate caregivers provide gentle medication reminders throughout the day and night to ensure their medication schedule stays on track.
Returning home after being in the hospital can bring up feelings of loneliness and isolation for some. The transition from being surrounded by medical staff and other patients to being on your own at home can be emotionally challenging. There might also be concerns about communication and getting help quickly if needed. Our caregivers provide emotional support and companionship around the clock to further aid in the recovery process.
A support system is crucial for a successful transition home. This can involve family, friends, and caregivers for daily tasks and emotional support. Professional caregivers can assist with implementing a home safety plan, such as rearranging furniture to prevent accidents and helping patients get used to new mobility aids if necessary. They also communicate effectively with those they care for, their family members, and their healthcare providers to address concerns and promote recovery.
Benefits of Post-Hospital Care
Effective post-hospital care is crucial for individuals transitioning from a hospital setting to their homes. Comfort Keepers offers home care services that aim to support patients and their families during this critical period. Quality care at home can facilitate a smoother transition and offers many benefits.

Safety is a crucial benefit of post-hospital care. Caregivers can identify hazards and make home modifications to prevent accidents. This includes removing obstacles and ensuring proper lighting.
