The following information will assist you in planning for your discharge from the Day Surgery. It is important that you and your family or carer are involved in this process, as you will be able to identify any problems that you may face at home during your recovery period. The time patients spend in hospital is getting less and less, and it has been shown that the best place to recover is in your home surroundings. Shorter hospital stays, however, mean that some patients go home before they are fully independent with their care, so planning for discharge allows you to think of ways of ensuring all of your needs are met.
It would be helpful to start planning for discharge from Day Surgery even before you are admitted, as things often need to be put into place before you are admitted.
The checklist below may assist you in considering what arrangements you will need to make to ensure a safe recovery when you return home.
