Share Your Pre and Post Operative Instructions With Your Caretaker
It is important that the person who will be your caretaker for your surgery be familiar with your pre and post operative instructions so they can help out. We suggest you make a copy available to them. Review the instructions together 2 weeks before surgery and have a copy in an easy to locate place for quick reference.
If you have any questions about your pre and post operative instructions please contact your patient care manager at (604) 733-1669.
