In Hotel Nurse Care - Any Advice On This Service?



Recommended Posts

I think I have almost all my ducks in a row and my surgery is booked for the first week of November. I am wondering about the in-hotel nursing care though, has anyone used the service recommended by SWLC?

My husband can't travel with me (has to work/watch kids) so I will be alone in TO. I need to have someone pick me up and stay with me for the night after surgery, and SWLC included a pamphlet for Homecare that I can call. They are $20 per hour plus mileage to the hotel, which is fairly dear considering the amount of hours I will need someone ----

Did you use them? Any tips to minimize this bill?

Thanks.

what r u having done? I jusst had the band and was home that night and didnt need anyone. it was unconfrtable from the gas but no one could have helped me it just took time. might be nice to have the number just incase but sounds expensive.

I am being banded, but they tell me I can't leave the clinic by myself and that I should have someone around for the first night. Yes, it does sound expensive -- and since I am self pay it's all adding up so quick. :wacko:

I am wondering if I can get away with just having someone for a few hours instead of all night, has anyone else travelled in and used the service?
