Nissi homes care offers a range of care services that helps recovery and rebuilds independence. We provide care and support to older people following illness or surgery, managing their recovery to help to reduce the risk of complications and further hospital admissions.

The agenda is about helping people to 'do things for themselves' rather than 'having things done for them'. Our short term support following an illness or operation, prepares our service users to go back to the community and to continue to live independently by supporting them with the skills necessary for daily living. The development may last from as little as a few days to a couple of weeks and progress is reviewed on an on-going basis.

Post-operative care is similar to convalescent care but involves additional care. An example of post-operative care would be after a major surgical procedure, such as a hip replacement operation. Often older people are discharged from a hospital but are not yet mobile enough to look after themselves independently. We can help by providing care in the individual's home.
