Post-surgery & post-hospital care at home in Houston

Coming home after surgery or a hospital stay is when small things become hard — getting up safely, cooking a meal, remembering medications, making it to follow-ups. Our non-medical caregivers handle all of that so you can rest and heal at home, alongside your own doctors and therapists.

This is non-medical recovery care

Loving Arms provides non-medical support during recovery. We do not provide skilled nursing, wound care, injections, or physical therapy. If your recovery plan includes a home-health nurse or therapist ordered by your physician, our caregivers work right alongside them — handling the daily, hands-on help while your medical providers manage the clinical care.

Recovery support services

How our caregivers support your recovery at home

Every recovery is different. We build the plan around your surgery or discharge instructions, your energy levels, and how much your family can already cover — then adjust as you get stronger.

Mobility & safe transfers

Steady, hands-on help getting out of bed, standing, walking, using the bathroom, and moving between rooms — reducing fall risk when balance and strength are still returning.

Personal care & hygiene

Dignified assistance with bathing, dressing, and grooming when reaching, bending, or standing is painful or restricted after a procedure.

Meal preparation

Nourishing, home-cooked meals prepared to any dietary needs from your discharge instructions, with encouragement to stay hydrated and eat well while healing.

Medication reminders

Timely reminders to take prescribed medications as scheduled — including new post-surgery prescriptions. Caregivers give reminders only; they do not administer or manage medication.

Transportation to follow-ups

Rides to post-surgery follow-ups, imaging, therapy sessions, and the pharmacy — with help in and out of the vehicle and a caregiver by your side, especially when you can't drive.

Light housekeeping & companionship

Laundry, dishes, tidying, and errands so your home stays calm and clutter-free — plus warm companionship so recovery never feels lonely or isolating.

Getting started

Care can be in place before you get home

Call us even before discharge and we'll plan the transition home. There's no lengthy intake paperwork — just a real conversation about the surgery or hospital stay and what the first weeks will look like.

Step 01
Free phone consultation

Call 281-901-8279 anytime — we answer 24/7. Tell us about the surgery or hospital stay, the discharge instructions, and what help you'll need at home. No obligation, no pressure.

Step 02
In-home recovery assessment

We visit the home (at no charge) to check for fall hazards, plan the return from the hospital, and match you with the right caregiver — coordinating with any home-health nurse or therapist on your plan.

Step 03
Care starts — often within 24 hours

Your caregiver is ready the day you come home. We check in after the first visits, and because there's no long-term contract, we scale hours down as you recover and regain independence.

Paying for recovery care

Transparent rates and help using your benefits

Short-term recovery care fits our private-pay model well — no long-term contract, and you only keep the hours you need. We also accept Long-Term Care Insurance, VA benefits, and CareScout. See all the ways to pay.

Long-Term Care Insurance

LTC Insurance

Most long-term care insurance policies cover in-home personal care during recovery. Our advisors help families understand their policy, file the claim, and actually use their benefits — so the coverage you've paid into for years finally goes to work.

CareScout

CareScout

Loving Arms is a CareScout network partner. CareScout members receive preferred pricing on in-home recovery care. Ask us about current CareScout rates when you call.

VA Aid & Attendance

VA Benefits

Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid & Attendance benefits to help pay for in-home care after surgery or a hospital stay. Loving Arms helps you file for it — walking your family through the process so the benefit actually reaches your care.

Common questions

Answers for Houston families

What is non-medical recovery care after surgery or a hospital stay?

Non-medical recovery care is hands-on help at home during the days and weeks after surgery or a hospital discharge. Our caregivers assist with mobility and safe transfers, bathing and dressing, meal preparation, light housekeeping, medication reminders, and transportation to follow-up appointments. We do not provide skilled nursing, wound care, injections, or physical therapy — instead we support the recovery plan set by your own doctors, home-health nurses, and therapists so you can heal comfortably at home.

Do you provide skilled nursing, wound care, or physical therapy?

No. Loving Arms is a non-medical home care agency. We do not perform skilled nursing tasks, wound care, injections, or physical therapy. Many recovering clients also have a home-health nurse or therapist ordered by their physician — our caregivers work alongside those medical providers, handling the daily, hands-on support (mobility, personal care, meals, reminders, and rides) while the medical team manages the clinical side of the recovery.

How quickly can recovery care start after a hospital discharge in Houston?

Recovery care can typically start within 24 hours of your free in-home assessment, so we can often be in place the same day or the day after a discharge. Call 281-901-8279 even before discharge and we'll plan the transition home. There's no long-term contract, so you can scale hours up right after surgery and taper them off as recovery progresses.

Can a caregiver drive me to follow-up appointments?

Yes. Transportation to post-surgery follow-ups, imaging, physical-therapy sessions, and the pharmacy is a core part of recovery care. Your caregiver helps you get safely in and out of the vehicle, accompanies you to the appointment, and brings you home — which is especially important when you cannot drive while recovering or taking pain medication.

How much does post-surgery home care cost in Houston?

Loving Arms is private pay with transparent hourly rates — typically $25–$35/hr, more affordable than national franchises that often charge $30–$40+/hr. There's a free in-home assessment and no long-term contract, which suits short-term recovery. If you have long-term care insurance or VA benefits, our advisors help you use them, and we accept CareScout. Call 281-901-8279 for a straightforward quote, or see our ways to pay page.

Are your recovery caregivers background-checked?

Yes. Every Loving Arms caregiver undergoes a thorough criminal background check, reference verification, and skills evaluation before entering any client's home. All caregivers are bonded and insured, and Loving Arms is licensed by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) with 15 years of experience serving Houston families.
