Supporting smoother, safer healing at home—one day at a time
Bringing a loved one home from the hospital after surgery is a moment of relief—but it also comes with big questions:
- How will they get around the house safely?
- What if they need help in the middle of the night?
- Who will help with meals, medications, and mobility?
- How can we prevent complications or readmission?
At Homewatch CareGivers of Coral Gables, we provide trusted after-surgery care at home, so families across Miami can focus on what matters most: healing, rest, and peace of mind.
Whether your loved one had a joint replacement, heart procedure, cancer treatment, or another operation, our caregivers offer personalized support to ease the transition—and reduce the risk of setbacks.
Why Recovery at Home Can Be Challenging
Even with a successful surgery, the recovery process can be physically and emotionally demanding. Seniors in particular may face:
- Limited mobility and higher fall risk
- Difficulty managing pain or medications
- Fatigue, confusion, or disorientation after anesthesia
- Trouble preparing meals or using the restroom
- Increased risk of infection or delayed healing
For families balancing work, kids, or distance, caregiving can quickly become overwhelming—especially during those first few critical weeks at home.
That’s where professional post-surgery care makes all the difference.
How Our Caregivers Support Safer Healing at Home
Our aftercare services are designed to fill the gap between hospital discharge and full recovery. We offer:
✔ Personal Care Assistance
Bathing, dressing, and toileting can be difficult after surgery. Our caregivers provide dignified support to ensure your loved one stays clean, comfortable, and confident.
✔ Medication Reminders
We help clients stay on track with post-op medications, including pain management and antibiotics, reducing the risk of complications or missed doses.
✔ Meal Prep and Hydration
Proper nutrition is essential for healing. We prepare easy-to-eat, doctor-approved meals and ensure your loved one is drinking enough water throughout the day.
✔ Mobility Support and Fall Prevention
From bed transfers to supervised walks, we help your loved one move safely around the house—especially during the early days when strength and balance are limited.
✔ Light Housekeeping
We handle laundry, dishes, and tidying so your loved one can recover in a clean, calm environment—without lifting a finger.
✔ Transportation to Follow-Up Appointments
Need to get to a post-op checkup or physical therapy session? We provide reliable transportation and accompaniment, so no appointment is missed.
A Story from Key Biscayne
After a knee replacement, Mrs. Hernandez, a retired teacher in Key Biscayne, was discharged with limited mobility and strict instructions to avoid stairs. Her daughter, who lives in Coral Gables, worked full-time and couldn’t be there around the clock.
We stepped in with a customized care plan: daily visits for bathing, dressing, and mobility support, plus medication reminders and transportation to physical therapy twice a week. Within a month, Mrs. Hernandez was stronger, more confident, and walking independently again.
“They were our safety net,” her daughter said. “We couldn’t have done it without them.”
Short-Term Care That Fits Your Family’s Schedule
You don’t need to commit to long-term care to get the help you need. We offer flexible after-surgery support—from just a few hours a day to 24-hour care—based on your loved one’s needs and your availability.
Care can begin the same day as discharge or be scheduled in advance for a seamless transition home.
