“My goal is to help every patient feel prepared, supported and genuinely cared for during the part of recovery that happens after they leave the clinic.”
— Rachel, RN
“The Person Behind Your Care”
Meet Rachel, RN Experienced nursing. Familiar support. Care centered around you.
The first days after surgery can feel overwhelming. Once you leave the clinic, questions, discomfort, limited mobility and everyday tasks can quickly become more difficult than expected. Rachel provides personalized postoperative nursing support in the comfort and privacy of your home.
Rachel is a registered nurse and co-founder of WorkHorse Recovery & Wellness. She brings seven years of nursing experience, including intensive care and medical-surgical care at OHSU and other major Pacific Northwest hospitals.
When Rachel accepts a case, she personally provides the scheduled nursing care. Patients can speak with her before their procedure, understand who will be entering their home and prepare a care plan based on their surgeon’s instructions and individual recovery needs.
What Rachel brings to your recovery
Experienced Clinical Support
Postoperative observation, discharge-instruction reinforcement and appropriate wound, dressing and drain support within the agreed nursing plan.
Practical Recovery Assistance
Mobility support, recovery-supply organization, simple meal preparation and limited tidying of the patient’s immediate recovery area.
One Nurse. Personal Attention.
Your scheduled care is provided by Rachel—not an unfamiliar rotating caregiver—so your support feels personal, consistent and thoughtfully planned.
Care is based on availability, the agreed nursing plan and the patient’s surgical instructions. Rachel’s services support—not replace—the surgeon, emergency care or other prescribed medical treatment.
THE NEXT PHASE OF RECOVERY
WorkHorse Fitness
Private training. Personal attention. Strength rebuilt at home.
Receiving surgical clearance is an important milestone—but it does not always mean you feel ready to return to ordinary exercise. Strength, mobility, confidence and routine may still need to be rebuilt carefully.
WorkHorse Fitness provides cleared clients with a structured next step. Our experienced training team delivers private 60-minute sessions directly in the client’s home, bringing the necessary equipment to every appointment.
Each program is built around the client’s current abilities, written medical restrictions and personal goals. Our trainers provide thoughtful progression, consistent support and a clear path forward—without requiring clients to navigate a crowded gym.
The WorkHorse difference

Our trainers bring private coaching and the necessary equipment directly to you.
Individualized Programming
Every program is adapted to your abilities, restrictions, comfort level and long-term goals.
A Guided Return to Strength
Clients receive mobility and strength programming, exercises between appointments, progress tracking and ongoing personal support.
A Consistent Training Team
Our trainers follow the same WorkHorse standards for preparation, professionalism, communication and individualized care.
“Our goal is to meet every client where they are and provide the structure, encouragement and personal attention needed to rebuild confidence and strength.”
WorkHorse Fitness begins only after written surgical clearance and follows the restrictions provided by the client’s medical team. Our fitness services do not replace physical therapy, medical rehabilitation or prescribed clinical care.
