Before Surgery
Once you have scheduled your surgery you will be provided with an admissions package prior to your hospital stay which includes:
- The forms you need to complete to finalise your booking
- Information on how to prepare before your hospital stay
- Further information about your hospital account
- Admission time
- Fasting instructions
On Your Surgery Day
After settling into hospital you will be visited by your anaesthetist who asks about your medical history and prepares you before surgery.
Dr. Drielsma sees you prior to your procedure. Some marking up or drawing on you may be involved prior to your surgery. However, this process is unlikely to hold any surprises as you will be well informed prior to your surgery.
Day Patients – Your Hospital Stay
Nursing staff transfers you to the recovery area for an hour following your anesthetic and operation, for monitoring. Prior to being discharged, you are transferred to the ward environment. However, the type of operation you have and the time it takes you to recover from the anesthetic determines the length of your hospital stay
Overnight Patients – Your Hospital Stay
Nurses transfer you to the recovery room following your operation and monitor you for an hour following your anesthetic before transferring you to the ward department for your hospital stay. However, again, the type of operation you have and the time it takes you to recover from the anesthetic determines the length of your hospital stay.
Before you leave the hospital you will be provided with postoperative care instructions and details regarding your follow up appointments with Dr. Drielsma.
