The time after an operation is crucial for your long-term health and recovery. Mishandling that post-op period can lead to:
Thankfully, you can easily avoid this when you take the right steps.
While some people can manage to recover just fine on their own, it’s often best to get professional help. Some people may go so far as to seek recovery at an inpatient facility, but if that’s not where you’d feel best, there are professionals specifically trained to help you recover from the comfort of home.
In the simplest terms, it’s a specific way of looking after an older adult as they recover from a major surgery. Every person’s care needs are different and the recovery process for different surgeries have varying needs. Even though these needs differ, post-hospital services can include:
Medication management
Our professionals in North York, Ontario can provide all of this and more. We hire a wide range of care partners to help fulfill any needs you may have while you recover. What care you’ll get depends entirely on what you or your loved one requires for a swift, obstacle-free recovery.
We’re one of the best care providers around when it comes to home care services, and post-op care is one of the many specific types we train our professionals to provide. We’ve got over 20 years of experience in providing home care services in North York, Ontario.

You can ask the doctor during your Discharge Planning for help exploring options. They will be able to assist with determining exactly what you’ll need out of you or your loved one’s post-op care. Often, you won’t need a full-on nurse and a PSW will be more suited to your needs. Around 90% of the work that you’ll need to do to help with a hospital-to-home transition are easily handled by a skilled PSW like those from ComForCare North York.
If you’re looking at inpatient options, we recommend you visit to check if it’s a place you or your loved one would feel comfortable staying at. If you’re looking to stay somewhere that’s familiar, we recommend speaking to outpatient professionals that know how to help you recover at home successfully after surgery.
