While You Heal
Following a procedure, it’s important to take extra care in order to aid a safe and speedy recovery.
Here are a few tips to help you make the most out of your visit.
What to expect after your surgery
Due to the nature of surgery, there are common after effects which you may wish to bear in mind
Medications
Keeping a note of when your next medication is due will ensure you do not exceed the stated daily doses and also guides the management of multiple medications. You may be given some of these medications at the time of your surgery, and again upon your discharge.
Post Operative Instructions following Intravenous Sedation
The drugs used in sedating a patient have the effect of making you amnesiac (short term memory loss) and rendering you “drunk in charge”, in that you are not responsible for your own actions and certainly not able to drive. Because of this, it is our medico-legal responsibility to ensure that you are properly looked after on leaving our practice
Our support staff, specialist Registered nurses and surgeons are here to help.
You are very welcome to contact Anglesea OMS if you have questions, or to arrange an Appointment/Referral.
