Nurse supporting orthopaedic recovery at home

Specialized Services

Orthopaedic Conditions

Functional recovery, pain control and clinical support in the comfort of home.

At Satélite Familiar, we provide a service of specialised home care for orthopaedic and trauma conditions, aimed at people who need clinical support, rehabilitation, monitoring, guidance and personalised care after injuries, fractures, orthopaedic surgery or musculoskeletal changes.

Orthopaedic and trauma conditions can affect bones, muscles, joints, tendons, ligaments and the spine, causing pain, loss of mobility, functional limitation, difficulty walking, insecurity in daily activities and reduced autonomy.

Our goal is to help each client recover with greater safety, comfort and confidence, promoting quality of life, function and independence at home.

As an Integrated Home Healthcare company, Satélite Familiar stands out for its ability to coordinate several professionals and services into a personalised response, including home nursing, home physiotherapy, motor rehabilitation, support from a Healthcare Assistant, support materials, assistive devices and clinical telemonitoring, whenever applicable.
