RECOVERY AND REHABILITATION SUPPORT
Organise help from family and friends to make recovery easier
Recovery after surgery or injury can be slow and challenging. Simple tasks can be difficult or even impossible.
Support from family and friends can play an important role in recovery – but it is not always easy to ask for the help you really need.
Gather My Crew is here to make coordinating this help easier.
Set up a ‘support crew’ and coordinate family and friends to help out with meals, laundry, grocery pickup or social visits.
Or create an account for someone you care about today.
How Gather My Crew Works
Gather My Crew helps you bring together the people who care about you, and makes it easy for them to offer the right help at the right time.

Step 1: Start a Crew
Download the free app and create a private support crew. You can do this for yourself or for someone you’re helping.

Step 2: Answer a few simple questions
We’ll guide you through a few prompts to help you think about what kinds of help and care would really make a difference right now.

Step 3: Explore helpful content
Take a moment to read through our trusted tips and guidance. Whether you’re asking for help or offering it, we’ll help you feel confident and supported.

Step 4: Add some helpful tasks
Meals, school pickups, walking the dog, errands, emotional check-ins—whatever would lighten the load. Start small and build from there.

Step 5: Invite your people
Family, friends, neighbours, and colleagues can be invited to join your crew. They choose the tasks they can help with—no pressure, no confusion.

Step 6: Post a welcome message
Let your crew know you appreciate them being there. A simple message helps set the tone and brings everyone together.

Step 7: Track and coordinate with ease
Everyone can see what’s needed and who’s doing what—so nothing falls through the cracks and you don’t have to chase things up.
“Wednesday is my day off. So I’d be more than happy to walk the dog.”
“I’ll take Anna’s kids with mine to school. Easy since they’re so close by”
Advice from an Orthopaedic Surgeon
To assist with surgery recovery at home, I encourage my patients to make preparations prior to going into hospital.
It is incredibly important to arrange family and friends to assist with everyday tasks such as cooking, shopping and laundry.
When this is done well, patients are able to concentrate on their recovery rather than worrying about things they can’t do or attempting to do things they shouldn’t do.
Gather My Crew’s app makes it easier to ask for and manage the help required in a dynamic way that can be adapted as the needs change during the recovery process.
