When it comes to providing essential living assistance services in Tucker, GA, and the surrounding towns, Visiting Angels of Tucker excels. In addition to assisting with the recovery process, our expert caregivers can significantly minimize the likelihood of hospital readmission.

Home Care as a Component of Your Recovery Strategy

Your loved one's medical team may ask that they have a care plan in place before having surgery performed. As part of their pre-surgical preparation, your doctor will discuss the types of tasks they may require assistance with on operation day, as well as in the days and weeks after the procedure. Fortunately, you can schedule living assistance services with Visiting Angels of Tucker once you've determined what your loved one's post-operative care plan would entail.

When providing living assistance services for seniors recovering from surgery, we can provide support from start to finish. Here are some of the many ways our caregivers can help:

• Transitional care - You can partner with Visiting Angels of Tucker as soon as your loved one is ready to be discharged. Our Ready-Set-Go Home program offers one-on-one transitional care to help seniors safely return home.


• Meal planning and preparation - Whether your loved one is unable to prepare meals due to temporary physical limitations or they need to follow a specific diet as they recover, you can count on our caregivers to help them plan and prepare delicious and nutritious meals and snacks.


• Personal hygiene assistance - By helping clients with bathing, grooming, dressing, and other personal hygiene needs, we can help them stay healthy and comfortable as they recover without worrying about them straining themselves or slipping on wet surfaces.


• Fall prevention - As your loved one is recovering, they may experience mobility issues that can make them more prone to falls. Fortunately, Visiting Angels of Tucker offers fall prevention solutions to help clients remain safe.


• Mobility assistance - We can help your loved one move safely around the house, use the stairs, and get in and out of vehicles. We can also provide ambulation assistance if your loved one needs to use a walker, wheelchair, or other mobility aid during their recovery.


• Medication reminders - If your loved one has been prescribed medication as part of their recovery, our caregivers can ensure they take the proper dosage at the correct time.


• Transportation - Our living assistance services include reliable transportation to follow-up appointments, physical therapy sessions, prescription refill pickups from the local pharmacy, errands, and more.


• Companionship - Seniors who live on their own may start to feel lonely as they recover. That's why our living assistance services also include meaningful companionship. Our caregivers can keep your loved one company and keep a close eye on them in case they start to experience issues that could lead to complications.
