Recovery doesn’t end at the hospital. In fact, the most critical phase often begins at home.

Post-hospitalization home care serves as a vital bridge between medical treatment and everyday life. For patients in Southern California—especially seniors or those recovering from surgery, injury, or illness—structured medical home support ensures a smooth transition from hospital to home.

At Around The Clock Caregivers, we specialize in providing compassionate, skilled in-home care to help patients regain independence, prevent re-hospitalization, and rebuild quality of life.

What Is Post-Hospitalization Home Care?

Post-hospitalization home care involves personalized care services delivered at home following a discharge from a hospital or rehab facility. It includes a combination of medical supervision, rehabilitation assistance, and help with daily living tasks.

This care is often required for individuals recovering from:

• Surgery (hip/knee replacement, cardiac procedures, etc.)

• Stroke or neurological conditions

• Injury or fall

• Severe illness (like pneumonia or COVID-19)

• Hospital stays due to chronic disease flare-ups

Key Components of Medical Home Support

Effective medical home support goes beyond general caregiving. It involves collaboration between nurses, therapists, caregivers, and the patient’s doctor to ensure continuity of care.

✅ 1. Medication Management

Proper dosage, timing, and tracking to avoid complications.

✅ 2. Wound Care & Post-Surgical Support

Daily dressing changes, mobility support, and hygiene care.

✅ 3. Physical Therapy Assistance

Following doctor-prescribed exercises and mobility routines.

✅ 4. Monitoring of Vital Signs

Especially for conditions like heart failure, diabetes, or COPD.

✅ 5. Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)

Support with bathing, toileting, dressing, meal prep, and more.

✅ 6. Emotional & Mental Support

Companionship and encouragement during recovery are essential to healing.
