If a relative or friend has asked you to help them get to and from North Shore Specialist Day Hospital for a procedure, you may be wondering what to expect. You will need to escort your friend or relative from the hospital following their procedure and ensure yourself or another responsible adult supervises them for the next 24 hours.
We will advise the patient of their expected discharge time when they are admitted on the day of surgery.
If you would like to wait for them during their procedure we have a comfortable waiting room area or you can take a short walk to:
Willoughby Road, Crows Nest is also a short 5min drive away offering a variety of retail shops and restaurants.
Our team will call you after the operation to confirm the anticipated discharge time.
Written and verbal discharge instructions will be given to the patient and yourself. They will need to rest at home for the remainder of the day. It is essential that they do not drive a motor vehicle or motor bike until the day after their admission. If you have any concerns about their recovery after the procedure, please call their doctor immediately.
