Wear loose, comfortable clothing that is large enough to accommodate a bandage after surgery. Wear comfortable shoes such as slip-ons.
You will need to change into a surgical gown once in the pre-op area.
Do not wear any jewelry (including body piercing), makeup or cologne. Do not bring any valuables with you other than a photo ID and all insurance cards.
Wearing contact lenses is NOT advised. We provide containers for removable dentures and bridgework.
If your child is having surgery, feel free to bring a favorite stuffed animal or security blanket for added assurance.
If your child has been sick, please alert the surgery center as soon as possible to ensure your child can proceed with surgery.
Grateful for an excellent experience (prep, surgery, and recovery teams) with my Cochlear surgery.
