Pediatric Surgery
After Surgery
While your child is undergoing surgery or is in the
Phase I Recovery Area, we ask that you remain in the
surgery waiting area until the physician has spoken with
you. A staff member or volunteer will be present to
keep you informed of your child's progress.
After your child arrives in the Phase II Recovery Area,
you will be asked to join him or her. We encourage you
to participate with the care.
Your child may experience some nausea and/or vomiting.
It is not unexpected to have a flushed face.
We will give your child clear liquids to drink. The
length of stay after surgery is individualized.
Once your child has met discharge requirements, a nurse
will review instructions with you regarding diet, wound
care, activity and when your child should return to see
the doctor.
If you wish, you may fill prescriptions in one of the nearby
Pavilion Pharmacies.
