During the procedure, our CAREGiver can provide companionship and reassurance. Or, if the client prefers, we can return to their home to help with laundry, errands or meal services.
After the procedure, our CAREGivers continue to provide companionship and on-site or in-home help, such as reminding the client to follow doctor's orders and post-op instructions.
