Default Tips - what I can recall from previous posters

I think some used to mention taking those socks with grippy stuff on the bottom - or slippers that aren't slippery.
hospital booties aren't the best and you don't want to slip and fall or try to catch your self.

oh and having easy to put on clothes for going home and at home

pull on pants and loose tops or buttons as pull over tops were tough on the arm movements for awhile.

lots of pillows for propping and comfort - so you aren't straining to hold head or arms in a comfortable position.

try to not make any quick movements for awhile - some had tried to catch a glass or plate that was falling - just let it fall

have a cautious driver to drive you around so all movements are smooth and easy - no quick stops or take offs. etc

I'll try to think of more to add.
