Outpatient Surgery
At
Amsterdam Memorial, outpatient surgery saves time and expense for
patients and minimizes interference in their home life and
employment.
Outpatient surgery is often referred to as same-day surgery, and
with good reason. About one-third of operations that in the past
have required an overnight stay in the hospital can now be performed
effectively and safely on an outpatient basis...in a day or less!
You are
able to avoid a disruption of your lifestyle because your surgical
procedure will require only a few hours away from your regular
routine.
The
outpatient surgery department at AMH provides for you comfort,
safety and well being. Nurses trained in preoperative and
postoperative care will care you for you.
Ambulatory surgery provides surgical
services that do not normally require hospitalization. As a patient,
you arrive at AMH, have the surgery, and are driven home by a friend
or relative on the same day. One of the greatest advantages is your comfort and
convenience. You can recuperate in the comfort and privacy of your
home, with family and friends.
