I hope you’re doing ok and recovering fast.

If you get stuck and need help I know there’s a nursing service called Call On Clare? Not sure if they specifically handle surgical aftercare at home (you’d have to check) but they do home visits and could help you with appointments and transport if you need follow-up.

Some hospitals do send someone to check in on you and help you post admission but to be honest the service isn’t always great… there’s also nurse on call and the virtual ED if that puts your mind at ease.

Fingers crossed you manage ok though.
