Recovery

After surgery, feelings of physical and emotional pain are common. Oftentimes, people who have undergone a surgery feel as though they are a burden to their family, friends, and caregivers. In some cases, they suffer in silence.

With True Compassion Home Care staff, you are never a burden. You can call on us as often as you need to, and someone will always be there to help you.

We will take care of you and your space and provide undivided care and commitment to your recovery. We never want our clients to feel guilty for asking for help. If your pillow needs to be fluffed many times, we will fluff it many times!

Helping you gain physical and emotional wellbeing

We know the road to recovery comes with its highs and lows. We understand that post-operative depression is not something many people are prepared for.

The skilled staff at TCHC are trained to recognize signs of depression in our clients. We work with them, their family and the healthcare team to provide necessary positive interactions to help our clients overcome their depressive state.
