Langley families coming home from Langley Memorial Hospital usually need the same thing the first week: someone to follow the discharge plan when family can't be there all day. Salve covers that across Walnut Grove and Yorkson, Willoughby and Routley, Murrayville and Brookswood, and the rest of Langley.

Who it's for
Families whose loved one is coming home after surgery, a hospital stay, or a fall. With registered nurses on the team and a BC HCP license, we cover both the personal-care and the clinical sides of recovery: wound care, infusions, medication management, the lot.
Hours and schedule
Most families start with daily visits in the first week, then taper. Four-hour minimum per visit. Days, evenings, overnights, or 24-hour care depending on what the recovery calls for.
§
Recovery, with acreage.
A Langley Memorial discharge can land on a Willoughby townhouse or a Glen Valley acreage, and the difference matters: on rural properties the nearest help is a driveway away, not a wall away. Daily recovery visits become the safety net (medications, wound monitoring, mobility work, a cooked meal), with the schedule weighted toward the first two weeks when most setbacks happen. Notes go to the family and to the next medical appointment, wherever it is.

Post-hospital recovery in Langley: what families ask.
Is daily care realistic on a Township acreage?
Yes. The distance goes into the schedule: visits are planned so the four hours are spent on the recovery, and rural addresses get the same daily rhythm a Langley City condo would.
The only full bathroom is upstairs. What do we do?
The assessment answers that against the actual house. Sometimes the fix is technique and supervision on the stairs; sometimes it's a temporary main-floor arrangement. We'll give you the honest version once we've seen it.
Where in Langley we deliver.
We see Langley families in Walnut Grove and Yorkson, Willoughby and Routley, Murrayville and Brookswood, Fort Langley and Glen Valley, Aldergrove and Otter District, and Langley City: Nicomekl and Douglas.
What it costs, and how families pay for it (extended health, VAC, CSIL,
and more), is laid out in costs and coverage. The people behind the visits are here: meet our caregivers.
