Post-Surgery Support

Recover Safely at Home with Silk In-Home Care’s Post-Surgery Support Services

Healing after surgery isn’t just about follow-up appointments—it’s about what happens in the hours, days, and weeks after returning home. Seniors often face unique recovery challenges, including limited mobility, fatigue, medication confusion, and risk of re-injury.

That’s where Silk In-Home Care steps in.

Our compassionate caregivers provide non-medical, in-home post-operative support so seniors can focus on recovery while staying safe, supported, and independent in their own homes.

We proudly serve Vinton, Gallipolis, Jackson, Athens, and surrounding Southeast Ohio communities.

Why In-Home Post-Surgical Support Matters for Seniors

After a hospital discharge, many seniors struggle with everyday tasks—especially after procedures like:

  • Hip or knee replacement

  • Cataract surgery

  • Heart bypass or stent surgery

  • Hernia or gallbladder removal

  • Back or spinal surgeries

  • Cancer-related operations

  • Shoulder or rotator cuff repairs

  • Hysterectomy or prostate surgery

Without support, recovery can be slowed by falls, missed medications, poor nutrition, or complications from overexertion.

What Our Post-Surgery Care Includes

Every client receives a personalized post-op care plan tailored to the type of surgery and their individual needs. Services may include:

✅ Mobility Assistance

Help with getting in and out of bed, chairs, or the shower—safely and confidently.

✅ Medication Reminders

Caregivers remind clients to take medications on time and as directed, helping to avoid skipped doses or overmedication.

✅ Meal Preparation

We prepare light, nutritious meals that align with post-surgery dietary restrictions, including low-sodium, bland, or soft diets.

✅ Companionship and Monitoring

Clients are never alone. Caregivers offer peace of mind, observe for any signs of complications, and contact loved ones if needed.

✅ Light Housekeeping and Laundry

Our team ensures the home stays tidy, sanitized, and safe—reducing the chance of infection or trip hazards.

✅ Transportation and Errands

We provide reliable transportation to post-op follow-ups, therapy sessions, or trips to the pharmacy.
