A vet who is able to do this surgery should have plenty of good recommendations for recovery. But here's what I found worked for my old cockatiel as he declined and grew less mobile (heart disease, a tumor, etc).
While he was still able to sort of get around his normal cage, I added this corner perch (there are also similar solid wood shelves or cloth hammocks) and this branch bridge, used horizontally as a long perch. I also found a crossed rope perch - it was an X with four ends - which I have not seen available again but worked great for getting around.
When he was further along, he moved into a "hospital cage" - really a clear Rubbermaid tub with holes that I cut into it for more airflow. He was far beyond flying at that point so in his case the top was open. Most holes were higher than he could reach, but I cut two just a couple inches up, and attached a rope perch through them. The perch sat just barely above the towel that lined the bottom, but it meant he could be in a perching position (foot-wise) without having any distance to fall. Later still, when he couldn't perch anymore, it was just the towel.
Anyway, sharing this in case any of this is useful (in reverse order from how I did it) as your bird recuperates! Best of luck to both of you!

Seagrass is generally fine, it's the attachment parts (strings) that kill the bird. Which is why I would use a corner perch.
