After Surgery

You must have a responsible adult present to drive you home and to care for you following surgery for at least 24 hours..

Your physician will provide post-operative instructions regarding diet, rest, exercise and medications. You will be provided with a written summary of these discharge instructions.

A nurse from N.A.S.S. will attempt to call you the day after your surgery to check on your progress and discuss any questions you may have. If you have any unexpected problems, please call your surgeon. In cases of emergency of course please go you the nearest emergency room.
