Great tips.
Another one I've heard often is lots of pillows for propping you or arms for comfort. Even for car trips to appts and such.
A comfy recliner is often suggested for even sleeping in the first few nights at home, mostly due to difficulty trying to get up & out of a bed post op.
Plus being propped up a bit helps keep any post op swelling down.
easy meals as mentioned
Easy on & off clothes
when I had severe & acute bout of bilateral RSI in 1999 - my kids were a bit older, but they all had to start washing their own clothes. Jeans & T shirts mostly at our house, so pretty easy for them.
