Comfort Keepers Post-Hospital Care To Ease The Journey to Recovery in Centereach, NY
We can ease your loved one's transition from the hospital or rehabilitation facility to home, leading to a safer, more comfortable post-surgery recovery.
The time immediately following release from the hospital (also known as the postoperative period) is a critical phase of the recovery process. Studies show a lack of proper post-hospital care and support after surgery can lead to slower recovery. There is a substantial risk of readmission due to severe complications, such as infection, blood clots, or reopening an incision. This is why it is essential to have a thorough postoperative care plan before transitioning home.
Family and friends may be eager to help their loved one recover after surgery. However, most lack the proper training to provide postoperative home care. Furthermore, caretaking for family members recently undergoing surgery is labor-intensive and time-consuming.
