Postoperative care at home

Postoperative care at home is a type of care that patients receive following surgery at home. This enables them to recover or stabilise in their own homes with the support of a nurse or carer.

Postoperative care aims to help patients safely recover and regain their independence following surgery and prevent problems that could impact their neurological and physical health.

No matter how unique your care circumstances are, we’re here to support you in receiving world-class postoperative care at home.

Following surgery, most patients struggle with daily tasks and managing their recovery. To ensure a safe and stable recovery, postoperative home care allows specialist nurses and carers to deliver care to the patient in their own home, support their medical and care recovery, and alleviate any pressures on their family and loved ones.

At Ellea Nursing, we offer postoperative care services to enable patients to recover from their surgery at home. Our specialist nurses and carers step in to provide compassionate care for as long as you need.

Postoperative care is vital in supporting patients to fully recover after surgery. Postoperative care can:

• Minimise risks of health complications, including infections, blood costs, pulmonary complications and atelectasis.
• Provide emotional support and expert care from a specialist team of healthcare professionals.
• Improve the overall outcomes following the surgery by having a nurse or carer manage the care recovery.
• Reduce discomfort and pain after the surgery as pain management is an aspect of postoperative care.

Patients will typically receive the following services during postoperative care to ensure they fully recover from their surgery:

• Medication management
• Physical therapy
• Nutritional support
• Wound care
• Personal care
• Rehabilitation services
• Nursing care

Postoperative care at home supports patients to recover in the comfort of their own homes whilst nurses or carers manage their care to ensure they fully recover and stabilise following their surgery.

During postoperative care at home, healthcare professionals monitor the patient’s overall health and the area where the surgery was performed. They also provide support with administering medication, cleaning the wound, carrying out personal care, and focusing on rehabilitation and recovery.

Postoperative care at home with Ellea Nursing involves a highly bespoke and tailored care plan that focuses on your care needs, wellbeing and recovery whilst prioritising sensitivity and discretion.
