Post-surgery care at home in Madrid

Recover from surgery where you actually rest

Dressings, drains and injections after your operation, wherever you are staying in Madrid. And we speak English.

Why recover at home

Your operation is done, now comes the healing

A surgical wound isn’t just a procedure to finish: it’s days of care when moving is exactly what you shouldn’t do. We bring the aftercare to your door, so your only job is to recover.

  • 01

    Recovery without the travelling

    After an operation, the last thing your body needs is more journeys. The stairs, the taxi, the waiting room — all of that disappears, and resting becomes your only job.

  • 02

    Clinical eyes on your wound

    A registered nurse checks how everything is healing at every visit and spots warning signs early, following your discharge report and your surgeon’s instructions.

  • 03

    One message away, in English

    Between visits, anything that worries you fits in a WhatsApp message — and the person answering knows your case.

What we take care of

Dressings, drains or injections, your discharge report decides

Every operation leaves its own homework. Whatever yours prescribed, we do it where you are staying, with the technique it calls for.

  • 01

    Dressings and wound care

    Cleaning and dressing your surgical wound with sterile technique and supplies included, following your surgeon’s protocol until it has fully closed.

    Every 2-5 days, as prescribed
  • 02

    Stitch and staple removal

    With sterile material, checking first that the scar can take it. Done where you are staying, without a trip to a clinic.

    Single visit · day 5-21

    Injections after surgery

    The daily heparin so many operations prescribe, and any other prescribed injectable — at your time, day after day, holidays included.

    Daily · for a season
  • 04

    Drain care

    Care of surgical drains according to your surgeon’s instructions: the site checked, the dressing clean and anything unusual flagged to you in time.

    Per your surgeon’s instructions
  • 05

    Prescribed medication and IV therapy

    Antibiotics, analgesia or IV fluids prescribed for your recovery, administered safely with the monitoring they require.

    With prescription
  • 06

    Night watch and patient care

    For the first nights after discharge, a professional keeps watch so you — or whoever is with you — can actually sleep.

    Day or night shifts

Recovering in a hotel or a short-term rental? We come all the same, in plain clothes and with total discretion — nobody around you needs to know. Send us a photo of your discharge report on WhatsApp and we’ll tell you exactly what your visits will include.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about post-surgery care

And for your specific case, a photo of your discharge report on WhatsApp answers almost everything.

I had surgery in Madrid but I don’t live here — can you handle my aftercare?

Yes — that’s exactly what this service is for. We come to wherever you are staying (a hotel, a short-term rental or a family home) anywhere in the Community of Madrid, and the whole process happens in English, from the first WhatsApp message to the follow-up after each visit.

What do I need to have ready for the first visit?

Your discharge report and any medication your surgeon prescribed — those set the plan we follow. We bring everything else: certified single-use supplies, dressings and the professional care. If you’re unsure about anything on the report, send us a photo on WhatsApp and we’ll go through it with you.

Do you follow my surgeon’s instructions?

Always. We work from your discharge report and your surgeon’s or doctor’s instructions, record how the wound evolves at every visit, and if something concerns us we tell you clearly so you can raise it with your medical team.

Can you take care of drains after surgery?

Yes — we care for surgical drains at home: checking the site, keeping the dressing clean and monitoring what your surgeon asked to be watched, always according to their instructions. Tell us what you have and we’ll confirm exactly what your visits will include.

Do you give the daily injections prescribed after surgery?

Yes. The daily heparin injection (such as Clexane) prescribed after many operations is one of our most frequent visits: same time, same nurse whenever possible, rotating the sites properly — so your recovery doesn’t depend on injecting yourself.

How much does post-surgery care at home cost in Madrid?

It depends on what your recovery needs, how often and your area; we give you a fixed quote before we start, with travel and basic supplies included, and a free consultation with no obligation. Tell us your case on WhatsApp and we reply in minutes.

How soon after discharge can you come?

We’re available 24/7, every day of the year, and many first visits happen the same day. If you’re discharged on a Saturday or your dressing needs changing on a holiday, you don’t wait until Monday.

Your recovery doesn't wait, and neither do we
