A knee replacement involves replacing damaged cartilage in the knee joint with an artificial joint, helping restore movement and easing pain.
Each year, over 200,000 hip and knee replacements are carried out in the UK. According to data, the lifetime risk of having a knee replacement is around 10.8% for women and 8.1% for men. Most patients are back home within 3 to 5 days and achieve full recovery within 3 to 6 months. The goal of this operation is to improve quality of life by reducing stiffness, severe pain, and increasing mobility.
You’ll likely be advised to use an assistive device early on and follow guidance from a physical therapist to improve strength and balance. It’s also important to keep your incision site clean. Returning to everyday activities, such as being able to climb stairs, wear shoes, or take a short walk, is possible with consistent physical therapy and support at home.
Choosing knee replacement surgery home care means you get the help you need, right where you feel most comfortable—at home. In the first few weeks, you may need help to get up safely, manage pain medicine, or keep up with your rehab. We’ll support you through every part of the healing process, from personal care and meal preparation to reminders for pain relief and help using walking sticks.
At Tiggo Care, we focus on what matters to you. Whether you're easing back into physical activity or just need someone to help you stay active safely, we create a care plan that suits your life, your pace, and your goals. We’ll liaise with your occupational therapist, assist with aftercare of knee replacement routines, and be there if other symptoms arise. We’re here to make the return to normal feel possible—and make sure you never feel alone while getting there.

Our knee replacement surgery home care is based on personal experience
We understand, first-hand how important it is to secure flexible and bespoke home care for your loved one.
“Tiggo Care is born out of my own personal experiences, following my struggle to find suitable care for my parents, both of whom lived with rare diseases..."

At Tiggo Care we understand how precious your loved one is to you and how unique they are. We also appreciate how overwhelming it can be to research and source the most suitable type of care.
We fundamentally believe that there is no ‘one size fits all’ care package and like to work with you and your loved one to understand your specific requirements. We’ll then create a tailored care package and match your relative with their ideal carer.
Unlike some other care providers, we are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission. This means we are regularly inspected, rated and audited to ensure we are a safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led organisation, committed to delivering the best possible care.
We’re also proud members of the Homecare Association, the U.K’s membership body for home care providers, which holds organisations to a high set of standards and requests them to abide by a strict code of practice
At Tiggo Care, all of our carers undergo a rigorous recruitment and induction process. They are fully vetted and background checked, with all references followed up. Our carers undertake their training on the best eLearning system currently available within the UK care market, ensuring they are well placed to deliver the best possible service. Specialist training courses such as moving and handling, medications and basic life support are also completed by our carers face to face, as we feel these courses are more effective when delivered in person.
If you like what you've read and are ready to access one of our care services or perhaps just have some questions, please follow our simple 3 step process below.
Send us some additional information about your request by emailing us or by using the form below. Alternatively, if you would prefer to speak with someone directly, please feel free to call us.
Our care manager will arrange a free consultation with you at your loved one’s home to better understand your requirements, create a personalised care plan and pair your loved one with a suitable carer.
And that’s it. You’re all set! We’ll introduce you to your loved one’s carer and the whole team, who’ll be able to provide you with all the ongoing support you’ll need.
Support includes helping with personal care, ensuring safe movement, helping you relieve pain, keeping meals nutritious, and giving reminders for blood thinners and pain medication as prescribed. Gentle guidance during aftercare for knee replacement surgery helps the person recover at their own pace.
Avoid contact sports, twisting motions, or sitting for long periods. Avoid putting stress, such as heavy lifting or sudden movements, during the early stages of recovery. It’s important not to put excessive stress on the new knee and to avoid actions that can strain or dislocate the artificial joint during aftercare knee replacement.
Sit in a firm, straight chair where your knees stay below hip level, and avoid sitting in the same position for too long. Use cushions and supports if needed to maintain comfort while respecting knee precautions. A proper sitting position supports healing, helps reduce swelling, and promotes good posture, especially in the first few weeks post-surgery.
Yes, we offer home care in London to support your recovery. Tiggo Care provides flexible, personalised care, ankle pumps, mobility, and medication during your knee replacement aftercare. We support you to start walking safely, work towards improved mobility, maintain a healthy weight, and gradually increase your activity. If you experience pain, our trained carers help monitor symptoms and ensure everything stays on track.
