BariCare
Patient Journey

Pre-Op → Surgery → Post-Op → Long-Term Care

Bariatric surgery is a multi-year relationship between a patient and their care team, not a single procedure. BariCare structures the entire arc into four connected phases so nothing gets lost between them.

Phase 1 — Weeks to months before surgery

Pre-Op Preparation

Before a date is even set, patients move through structured onboarding: medical history, prior reports, and a digital EMR summary the surgical team can review at a glance.

Medical history & document capture
Pre-op education modules & videos
Psychological readiness assessment
Pre-surgery checklist & clearance
Phase 2 — Surgery day & hospital stay

Surgery & Hospital Stay

On surgery day, the care team works from the same record built during pre-op — consent, clearance status and the surgical plan are already in place, reducing last-minute scrambling.

Digital consent & surgical checklist
Care-team coordination during admission
Procedure & discharge documentation
Discharge plan & first follow-up scheduled
Phase 3 — First weeks to months after surgery

Post-Op Recovery

The highest-engagement phase: daily tracking, a phased diet plan, medicine reminders, and frequent dietitian feedback while the body adapts to rapid change.

Clear liquids → full liquids → pureed → soft → normal
Daily weight, water, protein & vitals
Medicine & supplement reminders
Dietitian feedback on logged meals
Phase 4 — Ongoing, for years

Long-Term Care

Bariatric success is measured in years, not weeks. BariCare keeps patients engaged with habit tracking, periodic follow-ups, and a peer community — while giving hospitals visibility into long-term outcomes across their program.

Scheduled long-term follow-up visits
Weight-maintenance & lifestyle tracking
Community & peer support
Emergency SOS & important contacts, always on
Why the phases stay connected

Most systems treat pre-op and post-op as separate tools. BariCare treats them as one continuous record.

No re-entry between phases

History captured during pre-op is already on file when post-op tracking begins — nothing is retyped.

Same care team throughout

The surgeon, dietitian and nurse assigned during pre-op stay visible to the patient through recovery and beyond.

Longitudinal view for clinicians

Care teams can see trends across the full journey, not just the current phase, when reviewing a patient.
