Postoperative Care
Compassion, clear communication, and appropriate clinical care are central to postoperative recovery.
Overview of Postoperative Care
After major surgery, Postoperative Care is an important phase of recovery, especially after discharge from hospital. Appropriate wound care, medication management, nutrition, mobility training, and monitoring can reduce avoidable complications and support a safe return to daily activities.

Why Postoperative Care Matters
The period after hospital discharge can still carry a risk of complications. When medically appropriate, early Physical Therapy and safe mobilization may help reduce deconditioning and selected postoperative complications. Emotional support from family members can also reduce anxiety and help the patient feel supported.

Early mobilization may include deep-breathing exercises, supported coughing, ankle movements, and repositioning. Timing varies by procedure and medical condition and should follow the surgeon’s or rehabilitation team’s instructions.
Post-Discharge Care Guidelines

- Keep the Surgical Wound Clean: Follow the clinician’s instructions for dressing changes and wound hygiene, and seek advice for redness, swelling, discharge, fever, or worsening pain.
- Manage Pain and Side Effects: Take medication only as prescribed, monitor fatigue, nausea, or other unexpected symptoms, and contact the healthcare team when concerned.
- Encourage Safe Mobilization: Begin gentle movements and breathing exercises at the time and intensity recommended by the medical team.
- Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Exercise: Use an individualized program. Rehabilitation modalities may be considered when clinically appropriate and prescribed by qualified professionals.
- Set Recovery Goals and Monitor Progress: Set short- and long-term goals with the medical and rehabilitation team, and update them according to progress.
- Support Emotional Well-Being: Offer encouragement, social connection, and access to psychological support when needed.
