Joint Replacement Care

At Bridgewater Home Care we offer a breadth of support to help you or a loved one when recovering from an operation, from the comfort of the home. Our joint replacement care helps those who have undergone surgery to continue living as independently as possible by providing practical support, both around the home and with personal care.

When recovering from joint replacement surgery patients and families often wonder whether it is best to stay in hospital, a rehabilitation centre, or whether to return home. Increasingly, many are opting to return to their own homes if they are able to, ensuring their home environment is well suited for post-operative recovery.

The recovery process doesn’t end once you are discharged from hospital – it is important to think about how day-to-day tasks and activities may be affected, such as difficulty with mobility or being unable to fulfil daily responsibilities.

Depending on the operation and area of the body affected, individuals will have different abilities carrying out aspects of daily life. Whether it is difficulty with essential tasks such as bathing, dressing, cooking or mobility, or responsibilities that need to be taken care of such as pet care or medication, at Bridgewater Home Care our Care Specialists tailor services to suit you.
