Why Pre-Surgical Care from Always Best Care of Denver Makes a Difference
It’s tempting to think the hard work starts after surgery, but truth be told, the groundwork laid beforehand can shape the entire recovery journey. Seniors often face unique challenges before a procedure—think nerves, tricky instructions from doctors, and all sorts of new routines.
Here’s how we help make those pre-surgery days less daunting:
- Help with following pre-op instructions—no more wondering if you’re allowed to eat or what meds to skip.
- Transportation to appointments—getting to pre-surgery checkups and tests is a breeze with us behind the wheel.
- Medication and schedule management—keeping track of appointments and pills is our specialty.
- A friendly ear and emotional support—everyone needs a little reassurance when facing surgery.
- Home prep for a safe return—clearing walkways, stocking up on groceries, and making sure everything’s just right for coming home.
Family members can’t always be nearby or available around the clock, but that’s where our trained caregivers step in, filling in the gaps with care and know-how.
After Surgery: Recovery Support That Goes the Extra Mile
The real work often begins once you’re back home and the anesthesia’s worn off. Seniors are usually discharged sooner than expected, often with a stack of instructions and a list of new medications as long as your arm. That’s where Always Best Care of Denver shines.
We offer:
- Medication reminders—so no dose is missed.
- Meal prep tailored to dietary needs—healing starts with a good meal.
- Help with personal care—bathing, dressing, and even trips to the bathroom.
- Mobility support—avoiding falls and mishaps is priority one.
- Light housekeeping—because nobody wants to recover in a mess.
- Transportation to follow-up appointments—keeping up with post-op care is a cinch.
But it’s not just the practical stuff—companionship goes a long way in lifting spirits and fending off loneliness, especially when a senior is home alone during recovery.
