Check In
Check with the clerk about filling out admission forms. There's a special area where your family can wait while you're having surgery.
Medical History
The nurse may go over your medical history (including medications and allergies), and make certain that you've signed the consent forms.
Change Clothes
You'll change into a patient gown for your surgery. If you wear dentures or contact lenses, you may be asked to remove them.
Anesthesia
An anesthesiologist or anesthetist will review your history if you're scheduled for general anesthesia.
Going to Surgery
The operating room nurse will check your I.D. band and verify what procedure you're having. You'll then be transferred to the operating room.
