THE DAY OF YOUR PROCEDURE. (cont)

In order to provide you with the best possible care, we need a complete and current list of the dosage and strength of all medications, vitamins, or herbs you are taking at home. Please fully complete the pre-admission form or bring all medication bottles with you the day of your procedure.

Limit the number of people who are with you. We suggest that adult patients are accompanied by just one other person.

Bring all insurance cards with you, regardless of the type of procedure you are having.

Legally impaired individuals must be accompanied by their legal guardian along with proof of guardianship or their power of attorney. Legal guardians and power of attorneys need to sign the Consent to Treatment form.

CHILDREN UNDER 18
If a patient is under 18, a parent or legal guardian needs to accompany the patient and sign the Consent to Treatment form.

To help make small children feel as comfortable as possible, feel free to bring a security blanket, stuffed animal, or pacifier. Please bring a bottle of juice or water for young toddlers for the recovery phase.

Both parents are welcomed and encouraged to be with their children. Parents will be reunited with their children as quickly as possible following surgery. When children are discharged, we encourage two adults be present.
(One to drive and one to attend to the child)
