Your procedure was carefully planned.
Your recovery should be too.
Personalized care, wherever you choose to recover
It can be hard to know in advance what you will want or need during your recovery period. Standard packages can be overwhelming and they may not end up meeting your needs. Instead, I offer completely personalized care for each person. Every client typically recieves:
​
- 24 hour expert nursing care, including ongoing assessments and monitoring
​
- Transportation coordination to and from the surgical center and to post-op appointments if scheduled during our time together
​
- Coaching and guidance on nutrition, supplements, and hydration while following your surgeon's instructions
​
- Management of your recovery environment
​
- Assistance with basic hygiene and wound care according to your surgeon's instructions
​
- Open communication with your surgical team
​
- Luxury concierge services to support optimal healing and comfort
​
- Emotional support and ongoing therapeutic communicationÂ

*Virginia-based, but available to travel to wherever you choose to recover

Your Recovery Experience
Before Surgery
Our relationship begins before you ever step foot into the operating room. In the time leading up to your surgery, we'll discuss your procedure, your anticipated recovery, your surgeon's instructions, and what it will look like when you're home or wherever you choose to recover.
​
Together, we will prepare your plan of care and make sure the details are addressed before surgery day. Often this includes many little things that you didn't even think of.Â
​
​
This may include:
​
- Recovery planning
​
- Medication organization/plan
​
- Recovery supply planning
​
- Nutrition
​
- Mobility considerations
​
- Sleeping and positioning arrangements
​
- Transportation planning
​
- Communication with your surgical team
​
- Preperation of your recovery environment
​
​
The goal is to alleviate anxiety by handling every logistical detail, allowing you to focus entirely on your mental and physical readiness for your surgery.Â
The Day of Surgery
On the day of your procedure, I receive handoff from your surgical team. I coordinate your transportation and remain in close contact with the surgical center.
​
Thanks to our preparation, you will be taken into a recovery space that is already set up and waiting for you. We are able to implement your individualized care plan immediately, ensuring your safety and comfort while you continue to recover from anesthesia.Â
