Recovering from surgery can be challenging, and the right care at home can make all the difference. Whether you are a patient looking for expert in-home support or a healthcare provider seeking a trusted home health partner, Basin Health Companies is here to help.
Why Choose Home Health Care After Surgery?
Healing after surgery is about more than rest—it requires careful monitoring, pain management, and rehabilitation to regain independence safely. Many patients face challenges that can slow recovery or increase the risk of complications, including:
• Pain and mobility issues that make it difficult to move around
• Increased risk of falls or infections after returning home
• Challenges managing medications, wound care, and rehabilitation
• Difficulty traveling to follow-up appointments or outpatient therapy
Home health care provides an alternative to extended hospital stays or facility-based rehabilitation by delivering skilled care directly to the patient’s home. Basin Health Companies offers personalized, in-home recovery support that helps patients heal safely and avoid unnecessary hospital readmissions.
Specialized Post-Surgical Home Health Services
Basin Health Companies provides a full range of post-surgical home health services, including skilled nursing, therapy, and mobility support to promote a smoother recovery.
In-Home Safety & Recovery Assessments
A safe home environment is essential for recovery. Our clinicians assess the home for fall risks, such as poor lighting, loose rugs, and obstacles that could cause injury. Based on the patient’s needs, we provide recommendations to improve safety, including handrail placement, assistive devices, and furniture adjustments. Creating a supportive environment allows patients to move more confidently and reduces the risk of falls.
Post-Surgical Monitoring & Wound Care
Proper wound care is critical in preventing infections and promoting healing. Our skilled nurses provide in-home wound care, monitor for signs of complications, and educate patients and caregivers on dressing changes, hygiene, and warning signs to watch for. This support reduces the likelihood of hospital readmissions and helps patients stay on track with their recovery plan.
Physical & Occupational Therapy
Regaining mobility and independence after surgery requires the right therapy plan. Our licensed physical and occupational therapists work with patients to improve strength, coordination, and flexibility. Physical therapy focuses on rebuilding movement and endurance, while occupational therapy helps patients regain essential daily living skills, such as dressing and bathing. By addressing both mobility and functional needs, we help patients transition more smoothly back to their routines.
Pain & Medication Management
Pain control is an essential part of post-surgical recovery. Our team provides education on safe pain management strategies, including proper medication use and non-medication techniques such as positioning, movement, and relaxation methods. We work closely with physicians to ensure patients follow prescribed pain management plans while reducing the risk of overuse or complications.
Rehabilitation Equipment & Mobility Support
Many patients require assistive devices to move safely during recovery. Our team helps patients and caregivers understand how to use walkers, canes, braces, and adaptive equipment effectively. Proper use of mobility aids supports a more comfortable and independent recovery process.
Who Qualifies for Post-Surgical Home Health Services?
Patients recovering from surgery may qualify for home health care if they meet any of the following criteria:
• Require skilled nursing or therapy at home after surgery
• Have difficulty traveling to follow-up appointments or rehabilitation
• Need assistance managing pain, wound care, or mobility
