Returning home after being in the hospital for a surgery or illness is not easy, especially for seniors. Patients are normally discharged before making a complete recovery and must finish their recovery at home. After discharge, it is very important for patients to follow their discharge instructions, take their medications as directed, and get plenty of rest while avoiding activities that could cause a setback and rehospitalization. Having a caregiver present will help your loved ones follow their discharge instructions and get enough rest to make a recovery.
