POST-MEDICAL CARE
Whether planned or unexpected, continuing to get the care your loved one needs once they have left the hospital may be difficult, especially if they are struggling to get around on their own.
​
For those who can’t be there to help their family member or loved one with their post-surgery needs, or for those who could use additional help, post-medical care services are available.
What is Post-Medical Care?
Even when planned, many medical procedures come with the need for continued medical care after being discharged from the hospital. This could be follow-up doctor’s appointments, physical therapy sessions, or even help with basic tasks around the house as the healing and recovery process continues.
For those who live on their own, a post-medical caregiver from Independence Home Health can provide your family member or loved one with the care and attention they need as they continue to recover from their medical procedure in the comfort of their own home.
