After Surgery

You will be discharged to your car by wheelchair. If anesthesia has been administered, you must have a responsible adult present to drive you home and to care for you for at least 24 hours following surgery.

Your physician will provide post-operative instructions regarding diet, rest, exercise and medications.

A nurse from Bluegrass Specialty Surgery Center will attempt to call you in the days following your surgery to check on your progress and discuss any questions you may have. If you experience any unexpected problems, please call your doctor. If he/she does not respond within a reasonable amount of time, please go to the nearest emergency room.
