Family or close friends can offer their loved ones at-home care, so they can recover quickly and get back to their independent living. Consider the following helpful tips before you offer to care for someone after a surgical procedure.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Six In-Home Aftercare Tips for Seniors Recovering from Surgery<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Tip #1. First-Floor Recovery Room: <\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Gather all necessities into a first-floor recovery room so the patient won\u2019t have to use the stairs for a while. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Find a bed that is adjustable to the proper height for the patient and cover it with clean fresh-smelling linens and pillows. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Put the crutches or a walker close to the bed for easy reach. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000\">Place their toiletries or necessities beside the bed. When a bathroom isn\u2019t near the room, rent a portable chair commode for the first recovery days.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Tip #2. Prescription Medications: <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">Drugs are typically prescribed after replacement surgery. Pain medicines must be dosed exactly as prescribed, so have a conversation with the doctor before or immediately after surgery so you understand the details.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Tip #3. Wound Care: <\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">After any surgery, vigilant wound care is necessary. You\u2019ll have to call the doctor if there is increased swelling and inflammation. Keep the clean bandages and supplies handy so dressings can be changed expediently.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Tip #4. Household Chores: <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">Help the patient by doing as many household tasks as you can so they focus on their needed rest for recovery. Small things do help. Just bringing in the mail, or doing a couple loads of laundry is great. Neatening up their room will be appreciated. Running errands, grocery shopping and providing healthy meals are all important.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"color: #a21f4b;padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #000000\"><strong>Tip #5. Follow Up With Medical Appointments: <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"color: #a21f4b;padding-left: 40px\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">The patient mustn\u2019t miss their post-surgery medical appointments. You may have to make some difficult adjustments to your schedule so you can transport your loved one. This can all be challenging.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"padding-left: 40px\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000\">Tip #6. Rehab and Exercises After Surgery: <\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px\">Hip or knee replacement surgeries are normally followed by prescribed rehab plans that include daily exercises. After arriving home, people sometimes resist exercise due to pain or fatigue, but encouragement and a daily schedule can help.<\/p>\n<p>All surgeries need recovery time afterward, but hip and knee surgeries sometimes require more than families and friends can provide. You don\u2019t have to be discouraged.
