Why this care exists

The first week home after surgery is often harder than the surgery itself. The IV is gone, the nurses are gone, and the slow, stubborn business of healing begins — pain that comes and goes, mobility that has to be earned back inch by inch, medications that must be timed correctly.

Post-surgery care at home is built for this window. A trained attendant follows your surgeon’s discharge plan, watches the wound area, helps the patient stand up safely the first time, and keeps the family briefed on small changes — fever, swelling, low appetite — that could matter.

We work with discharges from Manipal, Apollo, Sakra, Fortis, Narayana and most major Bangalore hospitals — and we can be at the ward to ride along home if you let us know 24 hours in advance.

Conditions we support

Built for the cases families ask us about most.

If your situation looks like one of these — or sits between two of them — we can almost always help. When we can’t, we’ll tell you upfront and point you to who can.

  • Knee or hip replacement

    Mobility, pain monitoring, walker training, physio coordination.

  • Spine surgery

    Repositioning protocols, bracing, careful posture.

  • Cardiac bypass / stenting

    Vitals, walking program, sternum precautions, family coaching.

  • Abdominal & gynecological surgery

    Wound area observation, hydration, diet progression.

  • Cancer-related procedures

    Energy management, infection precautions, gentle care.

  • Cataract / minor surgeries in seniors

    Drops, eye precautions, fall prevention during recovery.

What you get

A care plan, not just a person.

Structured recovery plans built around your surgeon’s discharge notes. Wound area observation, mobility coaching, medication adherence and rehab handoff.

  • Wound area observation and reporting (no dressing changes by default)
  • Pain and medication tracking with timing log
  • Mobility coaching (bed → chair → walker → walk)
  • Coordination with your physiotherapist
  • Vitals: BP, temperature, sugar, SpO₂
  • Diet support, hydration tracking
  • Bathing assistance with surgical-site precautions
  • Family update after every shift
  • Doctor’s appointment companion (transport coordinated)
  • Escalation pathway for early warning signs

What care actually looks like.

The shape of a real day, not a brochure version. Routines flex around your loved one — but this is the rhythm we keep returning to.

  1. Day 0–1
    Discharge & first night home

    Caregiver rides along home; first vitals; sleep prep.

  2. Day 2–3
    Stabilising routine

    Walker steps, medication rhythm, family rhythm.

  3. Week 1
    Mobility milestones

    First walk to bathroom, sponge bath protocol, appetite return.

  4. Week 2
    Light activity

    Sitting longer, short walks, suture review with surgeon.

  5. Week 3
    Independence return

    Patient resumes some self-care; caregiver hours often taper.

  6. Week 4
    Step-down

    Many families move to hourly or part-time elder care from here.

How we match you

The match is the work.

We read your discharge summary before placement and match by surgery type — orthopedic and cardiac demand different precautions, and we won’t cross-assign. We can deploy a caregiver to the hospital ward for ride-along discharge with 24 hours’ notice.

What families tell us

Words from the families we’ve walked beside.

“We needed someone for Amma right after her hip surgery. Within 5 hours, Lakshmi was at our door — calm, kind, and so good with my mother. Three months in, we don’t know what we’d do without her.”
Anjali R.
Daughter · Indiranagar
“I’m in Singapore, my parents are in Whitefield. The team gave me daily updates, photos, even small things — when Appa refused breakfast, when his BP dipped. Real peace of mind.”
Karthik V.
Son (NRI) · Whitefield
“We had tried two agencies before. The difference here is the human touch — supervisor visits, gentle handling of my mother-in-law’s dementia, no pressure to upgrade plans.”

“Booked a night caregiver for my dad after his stroke. The transparent pricing and the WhatsApp updates from the caregiver every morning — that’s what won my trust.”

Frequently asked

The things families want to know.

Can you start the day of discharge?

Yes. With 12–24 hours notice we can place a caregiver at your home or directly at the hospital for ride-along discharge.

Do caregivers change dressings?

No. Active dressing changes are done by a visiting nurse from our home nursing tier. The attendant observes and reports the wound area between visits.

Will the caregiver coordinate with our physiotherapist?

Yes — including being present during physio visits, learning the home exercise protocol, and supervising daily practice between sessions.

How long do most families need post-surgery care?

Knee/hip: 4–6 weeks, with 24×7 in week one and tapering. Cardiac: 4–8 weeks. Abdominal: 2–4 weeks. We re-plan every fortnight.

What about night-time pain or nausea?

Caregivers are trained to call the family and care manager based on a clear escalation card we leave at home, and to use comfort measures (positioning, hydration, breathing) while help is on the way.

Can you provide an attendant only at night?

Yes — many families take a 12-hour night shift only, especially after week one, so the family can sleep while still being present during the day.
