After Shoulder Replacement Surgery your surgeon will usually suggest a Medicare Certified Home Health Agency to provide physical and occupational therapy to insure the best surgical outcomes. In the initial post-operative period many patients experience limited range of motion of their affected limb making it difficult to perform activities of daily living like washing or styling their hair, brushing teeth, getting up from a chair or doing the laundry. DiMi Nursing provides caregivers who will assist you during that post-operative phase as you recover from surgery.
