Day surgery services don't have to be limited to one day; a caregiver can be there during the night to make sure medications are taken, to check on the client, provide help to the bathroom, ensure proper hydration and nutrition, and can expand to a 24-hour shift if desired. During those critical 24 hours after coming home from a procedure, surgery or treatment, there is tremendous comfort and peace of mind knowing that our trained caregivers are present. Light housekeeping, grocery shopping and meal preparation for upcoming days are often helpful day surgery services that help the client feel that daily activities are not piling up, and allow for a restful, stress-free atmosphere that aids the healing process. Our caregivers and staff in Columbus are always discreet and follow HIPAA guidelines to ensure privacy, but equally important, they are focused on the safety and well-being of the patient.
Our Columbus day surgery services are fully customizable and completely flexible to make our clients comfortable and provide peace of mind to loved ones who worry from afar. Day surgery services include driving to the surgery, treatment or procedure, taking notes to ensure conversations with medical professionals are captured, companionship and comfort, transportation home, picking up prescriptions and medications, meal preparation, and even personal care services like assistance with bathing or dressing. When our day surgery services are needed, we don't need weeks or even days of lead time; we can match a caregiver with the appropriate skill level and personality to the client quickly and can step in when plan A falls apart, which it sometimes does. Our caring and compassionate staff want the client to have a pleasant experience, even when the day surgery, treatment or procedure leaves them uncomfortable or out of sorts; the training and skills our caregivers receive through Homewatch CareGivers University prepare them to provide safety as well as genuine companionship.
