Why Pre-Surgery Support Is a Game Changer
Nobody wants to walk into surgery feeling frazzled or underprepared. Skipping the right prep can make recovery tougher than it needs to be. Here’s how our team steps up:
- Pre-op instructions? We make sure nothing falls through the cracks—whether it’s fasting, medication adjustments, or doctors’ orders.
- Need a ride? We’ll get you to pre-surgery consults and back home, safe and sound.
- Medication management: From sorting pills to tracking refills, we’ve got your back.
- Emotional support: Surgery jitters are real. We’re there with a calming word and a steady hand.
- Home prep: Think clear hallways, comfy bedding, and stocked pantries—so everything’s set for your return.
Many families wish they could do it all, but work, distance, and life sometimes get in the way. That’s where we step in, so seniors in Mount Clemens don’t have to go it alone.
