Post-Surgical Care

About Our Post-Surgical Care in Buzzards Bay

Post-surgical care refers to the specialized medical and supportive care provided to a patient after undergoing a surgical procedure. This care is essential to help the patient recover safely and effectively in the comfort of their home. It typically includes pain management, wound care, monitoring for complications, medication administration, mobility assistance, and ensuring that the patient follows their doctor’s post-operative instructions. The goal of post-surgical care is to promote healing, prevent complications, and support the patient’s return to their normal activities.

What risks do seniors face without post-surgical care?

Increased Risk of Complications: Without proper care, older adults are more vulnerable to infections, blood clots, or other post-surgical complications due to their weakened immune systems and slower healing processes.

Poor Pain Management: Inadequate pain management can lead to increased discomfort, prolonged recovery time, and potentially severe pain that could have been managed with proper post-operative care.

Medication Errors: Older adults may struggle with managing their medications, leading to missed doses or overdoses, which can significantly impact their recovery and overall health.

Delayed Healing: Without proper wound care and monitoring, the healing process can be slowed down, increasing the risk of infection and other complications.

What are the benefits of post-surgical care in Buzzards Bay & Barnstable County, MA?

Post-surgical care services can significantly benefit both your older relative and you in several ways:

Enhanced Recovery: Professional post-surgical care ensures that your relative receives the necessary support for a smooth and speedy recovery. This includes proper wound care, pain management, and assistance with mobility, which all contribute to better health outcomes.

Safety and Monitoring: Having trained caregivers, such as CNAs and HHAs, on hand provides peace of mind. They can monitor your relative for any signs of complications and take immediate action if needed, reducing the risk of serious health issues.

Daily Living Support: Post-surgical care services often include help with daily activities such as meal preparation, personal hygiene, and mobility assistance. This support allows your relative to focus on healing without the added stress of managing daily tasks.

Emotional Support: Recovering from surgery can be emotionally challenging. Compassionate caregivers provide not only physical support but also emotional reassurance, helping your relative stay positive and motivated during their recovery.

Relief for Family Members: Post-surgical care services can alleviate the burden on family members, allowing you to focus on other responsibilities while ensuring your relative receives the best care possible. This can reduce stress and help maintain a balanced family life during a challenging time.

How long will I need post-surgical care after my procedure?

The duration of post-surgical care varies depending on the type of surgery, the patient's overall health, and their recovery progress. Some may need care for just a few days, while others might require support for several weeks or even months.

How can I prepare my home for post-surgical recovery?

To prepare your home for post-surgical recovery, remove tripping hazards, set up a comfortable resting area, place frequently used items within easy reach, and consider installing grab bars or using mobility aids as needed.

What role does nutrition play in post-surgical recovery?

Proper nutrition is vital for healing after surgery. Post-surgical care services often include meal planning and preparation to ensure the patient receives balanced, nutrient-rich meals that support their recovery.

The TLC team helped me to recognize that we all need help at times ... often we don't even realize the assistance we need, especially before and during recovery. I am so very grateful to TLC Private Home Care for the amazing services I received recently! I needed home care assistance after major surgery, as I live alone. I am a retired military veteran, and I'm used to taking care of myself. The TLC team helped me to recognize that we all need help at times ... often we don't even realize the assistance we need, especially before and during recovery. The selfless care, caring, conversation and companionship each team member provided daily were just as valuable over my weeks of recovery as the medical care and physical therapy I received from my VA and hospital teams. The TLC owner, Jolene, even made a personal visit on one of the days when I needed urgent assistance using her skills as a registered nurse! As a former caregiver, I can attest that that was above and beyond! I had not previously considered home care assistance until a friend recommended it. I will definitely reach out to TLC for any future needs, and I highly recommend this amazing team for any services you may need!

The care provided to my parents by TLC was outstanding, reflecting the deep commitment of the organization to their mission. TLC Homecare provided care continuously for about two years for my parents who were both in their nineties. This occurred throughout the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the month after my father’s passing, TLC Homecare continued as needed for my mother. The care provided to my parents by TLC was outstanding, reflecting the deep commitment of the organization to their mission. TLC exhibits the agility to staff quickly, adaptability to changing needs, and reliability to maintain the schedule. TLC managers are readily accessible when questions arise. Of essential importance, the TLC caregivers are experienced and deeply caring individuals. Over the course of two years, several of the same caregivers were regularly there for my parents and for us, and TLC scheduling enabling this personal connection made an amazing difference.

TLC is very responsive to our needs and concerns.. Contacted agency to assist in the care of my father with Alzheimer's disease. Co- owner Jolene Cicchese RN came out to meet my parents and do an assessment of my dad. Things could not have gone better. I have been worried about this process and expected some resistance from my parents to allow help in the home. Both of them are LOOKING FORWARD to the start of services. As a nurse myself I can be pretty tough to please, but Jolene and her agency made a fantastic impression on me. I know that we will have a great relationship and that my parents will be receiving the best care possible. So very happy I called TLC!!!
