PRIVATE POST-SURGERY SUPPORT

Surgery may be outpatient. Recovery is still recovery.

The first hours after surgery can involve medications, limited mobility, fatigue, nausea, dressings, drains, positioning instructions, hydration, personal care, and a long list of postoperative directions.

Once you have been discharged, much of that responsibility moves into your home, hotel, or other private recovery setting.

Elevé provides scheduled private postoperative nursing for patients who want qualified support during that transition rather than relying solely on a friend, family member, or transportation service.

Your registered nurse is dedicated to your scheduled recovery period, allowing care to remain personal, attentive, discreet, and centered around your individual postoperative needs.

01
COSMETIC & PLASTIC SURGERY

Private postoperative nursing for aesthetic recovery.

Elevé provides discreet one-to-one recovery support after qualifying cosmetic and plastic surgery procedures.

View Cosmetic Care & Pricing →

The first night after cosmetic surgery can involve much more than rest.

Depending on the procedure and your surgeon's instructions, early recovery may involve medication schedules, nausea, positioning restrictions, drains, compression garments, dressings, hydration, mobility, toileting, and assistance with basic personal care.

Elevé supports the transition from the surgical facility into your private recovery setting while following the postoperative instructions supplied by your treating surgical team.

FACE

Facelift, neck lift, blepharoplasty, facial rejuvenation procedures, and other qualifying facial procedures.

BREAST

Breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, implant revision, and qualifying combination procedures.

BODY

Abdominoplasty, liposuction, body contouring, and other qualifying body procedures.

COMBINATION PROCEDURES

ORTHOPEDIC SURGERY

Professional support for the transition home.

Private RN recovery support for eligible orthopedic patients who want more assistance during the early postoperative period.

View Orthopedic Care & Pricing →

Going home does not necessarily mean you feel ready to manage recovery alone.

Mobility limitations, anesthesia effects, postoperative medications, pain, fatigue, and fall concerns can make the first hours after orthopedic surgery challenging.

Elevé offers an additional layer of private support for eligible patients who want a registered nurse present during that transition.

JOINT PROCEDURES

Select knee, hip, shoulder, and other qualifying orthopedic procedures based on individual recovery needs.

AMBULATORY ORTHOPEDICS

Support after qualifying procedures performed in an outpatient surgical or ambulatory setting.

OLDER ADULT RECOVERY

Private postoperative support may be helpful for patients who live alone or whose family cannot remain with them during the early recovery period.

EARLY MOBILITY SUPPORT

Assistance with positioning, transfers, ambulation, toileting, hydration, meals, and surgeon-directed recovery instructions.

Not every patient's recovery fits neatly into one specialty.

Elevé may support patients following other qualifying outpatient surgical procedures when scheduled private postoperative nursing is appropriate for the patient's recovery needs.

Requests outside Elevé's primary cosmetic and orthopedic service lines are reviewed individually based on the procedure, anticipated discharge needs, recovery environment, nursing requirements, requested coverage, and clinical appropriateness.
