Considerations for support people

  • I have scheduled time to take care of myself (eat, shower, have some quiet alone time, participate in meaningful activities, go to work, etc).
  • I have a good sense of what to expect leading up to, during, and after my friend or loved one’s surgery.
  • I have spoken with my family or loved one and we have the same understanding about what kind of support I will be providing.
  • I feel as prepared as I can be to handle supporting someone after they have surgery.
  • I feel as prepared as I can be to care for myself during this time.
  • I have a plan for what to do if I feel stressed while my friend or loved one is healing from surgery.
