When you or a loved one is discharged from the hospital after surgery, the thought of continuing your recovery at home can be intimidating. What if I forget my medication? How will I make it to my follow-up appointments? What if I need help in the middle of the night?
These are the kinds of questions that might be fueling your worry. But our post-surgical assistance program will ease your anxiety. You’ll have peace of mind knowing that your loved one will have professional care throughout the day, night, or even 24/7 around the clock.

Surgery is already a frightening experience. Your at-home recovery doesn’t have to be. When you choose ILV, you will work directly with a care coordinator who will create a bespoke plan based on your specific needs.
For some, this means reminders to take medication. For others, assistance with using the bathroom, shopping for groceries, and completing other everyday tasks. But for everyone, the most important element is the human touch of companionship that our care providers offer to every single patient.
We also staff registered nurses. So if your recovery needs are more complex, ILV is still here for you. To learn more about everything we can offer you or a loved one for post-surgical assistance in Melbourne, reach out and talk to a care coordinator today.
