Recovering from surgery is a significant journey, and ensuring safety during the transition from hospital to home is paramount. In Alberta, while there isn’t a specific provincial mandate requiring accompaniment post-surgery, healthcare providers and hospitals emphasize the importance of having a support person during the initial recovery phase.

🩺 Why Accompaniment Matters

Post-operative recovery can present challenges such as dizziness, fatigue, or mobility issues. Having someone accompany you ensures immediate assistance in case of complications, helps with transportation, and provides emotional support during the early stages of recovery.

🏠 Home Care Services in Alberta

For those requiring additional support, Alberta offers home care services through the Co-ordinated Home Care Program. These services may include:

• Nursing Services: Post-surgical care, medication management, and wound care.
  
• Personal Care Services: Assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and mobility.
  
• Homemaking Services: Support with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and errands.
  

Eligibility for these services is determined based on individual needs and assessments by healthcare professionals. It’s advisable to consult with your healthcare provider or local health authority to understand the services available to you. Alberta.ca
