After Your Surgery
Once you are in stable condition, you will be discharged. It is normal to experience sleepiness and dizziness for 12 to 24 hours after surgery.
Post Care: You will receive verbal and written post-surgical care instructions (please follow these instructions). Your escort must be available to discuss and sign these instructions before you will be allowed to go home. If you experience anything unusual after your surgery, please call your surgeon or go to the nearest emergency room. A nurse from our center will call you the next day after your surgery to check on your recovery.
Transportation: DO NOT PLAN TO DRIVE yourself home or use public transportation after your procedure. A friend or relative or dedicated caregiver MUST stay with you for 24 hours.
All staff that attended to me were very personable & positive with me. As scared as I was they did everything to keep me relaxed and positive. They were excellent – positive, supportive, and sympathetic. I was tearful when I left due to their care and generosity. All in all I can’t thank you enough for my experience. God bless you all!”
