This week we are SMASHING the common misconception that home care is only for older adults. Andrea and Lucy explore how home care services can be a vital resource for people of any age recovering from surgery—whether it's a 25-year-old healing from a sports injury or a 45-year-old post-appendectomy. We discuss the types of non-medical support home care professionals can offer, such as medication reminders, meal prep, mobility assistance, and even companionship during recovery. You’ll hear real-world examples and insights on how short-term home care can ease stress, speed recovery, and help avoid hospital readmissions. Whether you're caring for an aging parent or preparing for your own surgery, this episode will help you rethink what home care really means.
