Post-Operative Care at Home
If you or a loved one is in the hospital or going in for an operation, you might want to consider how best to aid recovery and rehabilitation after surgery. Mumby’s post-operative care at home allows your loved one to recover in the familiar and comfortable surroundings of their home whilst receiving tailored support with daily tasks and the specialist healthcare they need.
At Mumby’s we have experience caring for post-operative patients who have had operations including hip or knee surgery, cataract and other eye surgeries, hernia repair surgery and cancer surgery and treatment. Once you’ve spoken to the Mumby’s team, we can help facilitate discharge home by coordinating with the hospital discharge team to ensure a stress-free return home.
After Surgery Care At Home
The type and level of post-op home care required will vary by patient and their condition. Your loved one may have limited mobility or sight after their operation. Postoperative live-in care provides a constant companion when they come home from the hospital. A live-in carer will ensure the safety of your loved one, reduce their risk of a fall, and help them stand and move safely around their home.
Patients returning home after an operation can be quite anxious about managing their daily routine and post-operative needs. A Mumby’s post-operative live-in carer can provide them with all the emotional support and care they need during their convalescence and recovery. This will allow them to feel secure and comfortable and able to get back to a normal level of independence and well-being as soon as possible.
You can arrange care in advance of your loved one’s surgery, so everything is in place when they need it. Learn more about ‘Why recovery at home after surgery is better.’

We understand that it is sometimes difficult to know when you may need our support as situations can change fast. You also may not get much notice of your loved one’s discharge from the hospital. If you need emergency post-operative care, please contact us so we can fast-track your enquiry.

Why Choose Mumby's
Live-in Care
We know it can be difficult deciding on the type of care and choosing your care provider. That’s why we have thought about why our clients choose us.
What our clients are saying about our outstanding post operative live-in care:
“I was extremely worried when I came out of hospital, as I was living on my own and my ability to move around was greatly minimised. But I need not have worried because my carer was lovely, cooking great meals and generally looking after me. I got a glowing letter from the consultant during my 6-week check-up and that was thanks to my carer making me do the exercises.”
