Recovery stays

The days after discharge decide the result.

Surgery is a day. Recovery is six weeks. Hospitals discharge you when you are safe to leave, not when you are well, and most medical travellers spend that gap in a hotel room, eating whatever arrives, walking nowhere.

What a recovery stay includes

A room built for someone who is healing.

Planned meals

Cooked on site and cleared against the discharge advice — not whatever the kitchen downstairs happens to send up.

Checks on a schedule

Wound, vitals and medication timing, watched by someone who knows what a problem looks like early.

Supervised movement

Physiotherapy or a walking programme, at the pace the surgeon set, on flat ground and in clean air.

A bed for the attendant

The person who came with you sleeps properly instead of on a chair. It is part of the plan, not an upsell.

Transport for reviews

Back to the hospital for suture removal, imaging and the surgeon's review, then back again.

Who it is for

Not everyone needs one.

A recovery stay earns its cost for post-operative orthopaedic and spine patients, for post-cardiac procedure patients cleared for step-down, for anyone who travelled far enough that flying immediately is a bad idea, and for older patients whose families cannot supervise recovery at home.

For a two-day dental trip it is pointless, and we will say so. A recovery stay is added only when the treating surgeon advises it. Nobody is upsold into a longer stay.

Questions

About recovery.

How long should I stay after surgery?

Your surgeon decides, and it is written into the discharge advice. In practice it ranges from a few days to about two weeks depending on the procedure. Fitness to fly is a medical judgement — we arrange the stay, but we never override the treating doctor.

Can my family stay with me?

Yes. A bed for one attendant is included, and additional family can usually be accommodated on the same campus. Say how many people are travelling when you send your reports so the estimate covers everyone.

Is it medical care?

It is supervised accommodation, not a hospital. Clinical responsibility stays with the treating hospital and the surgeon who discharged you. If something changes, you go back to the ward — which is one reason the stay is close to the city.
