When a senior or adult is in the hospital for an illness or surgery, they are often discharged to return home before they can effectively care for themselves. Upon returning home, it is important to get some rest and follow the instructions from your doctor including taking your medication, doing the appropriate exercises, etc. You must also avoid strenuous activity to avoid hurting yourself and going back to the hospital. Having someone around to help you with personal care and activities around the house can be very beneficial for your recovery.
