I'm trying to find the right term or word (if it exists) to describe all (or most of) the things that "go with" surgery, including, for example: transportation (to/from hospital/clinic/doctors' offices), logistics (all sorts), meds' management (calling back & forth both to pharmacies & doctors' offices, arranging for pick-up or delivery), physical & occupational therapy, meal delivery or preparation, laundry, housekeeping, etc. This list is not all-inclusive. I realize that the term "surgery" is rather vague and covers all kinds of surgery. But I just thought there might be a general term that is widely used in medical and patient circles to convey the "array" of items that go with surgery. Thank you.
I hope you can tell us what exactly your need is for this one word. For instance, are you planning a surgery and would like to know what to expect as pre op and post op care for this surgery?'
Without knowing that I think, for instance, if an appendectomy is planned you would look up online "post op recovery care non-complicated surgical removal of appendix". Probably about best you can do.
Best of luck with this.
ERAS protocols
AlvaDeer's pre/post op care is the closest one.
Some non medical home care agencies provide help with these needs, for a fee.
Try your local Area on Aging office and ask for information and referral. These folks know local resources and often can give you suggestions.
Good luck.
