Planning to have
Hip Replacement Surgery?
Remember to plan your Post Care.
If you're planning on having hip replacement surgery you've probably done lots of research finding the right doctor, understanding the procedure and gathering all the information to make an informed decision.
But have you thought about
what happens after the surgery?
After hip replacement surgery patients are generally sent to a rehabilitation facility for physical therapy and occupational therapy before being discharged to their homes.
That's when patients turn to Whitsyms to match them with the right caregiver.
The caregiver will assist patients with the activities of daily living:
- Bathing
- Dressing
- Toileting
- Transferring
- Ambulating (walking)
- Continence care and feeding (as needed by the patient and recommended by their physician)
- Medication reminders
- Run errands
- Light housekeeping
- Accompany to doctor’s appointments
- Monitor for gross behavioral changes
- Help to maintain safety
- Passive exercises
Recovery time is generally 6 weeks
(time can vary for each person)
