Understanding Transitional Care and Its Benefits in Waltham, MA

Suppose you or a loved one has recently suffered an injury or is recovering from a surgery or procedure. In that case, Home Helpers proudly offers transitional care programs through our recuperative care services. Often, clients recovering from major surgery can use a little assistance and would prefer to recuperate at home. Our Home Helpers Caregivers can help meet a variety of care needs, including companion care, personal care, and nutritional care.

Most clients prefer to recover at home and often benefit from extra assistance in maintaining their follow-up Care Plans. Home Helpers’ post-operative care is designed to help manage recovery efforts with services that include:

• 24/7 Monitoring
• Wellness calls
• Preparing the home before the patient arrives
• Assisting in scheduling follow-up doctor visits
