At Visiting Angels, our at-home elder care services help seniors in Broomfield, Westminster, Northglenn and the surrounding areas of Colorado recover from a medical procedure within the comfort of their own home

Most seniors will require some sort of surgery in order to correct age-related mobility issues or in order to prevent larger health issues. Depending on the surgery, seniors are often sent to rehabilitation facilities to recover, but it also not uncommon for them to be discharged directly home. As a matter of fact, according to estimates from the Rothman Institute at the Thomas Jefferson Medical School in Philadelphia, as many as 90 percent of seniors are sent home following a medical procedure. The problem is that older adults need more time to recover than younger adults and typically require support from others in order to get back on their feet.

At Visiting Angels Broomfield, we provide professional at-home elder care services to seniors recovering at home following a hospital stay and make sure they have all the support they need to complete daily tasks and get better.
