Following your surgery, you may be admitted to the hospital. Beyond the comfort of knowing they have placed themselves in good hands for medical care, patients benefit from special pampering that characterizes Progress West's patient-centered care approach.
- Family members are updated hourly on patient status and can spend time with the patient before and after surgery
- The same nurse who cares for a patient before a procedure also helps him or her through the recovery process; this continuity of care fosters a relationship of trust with the caregiver, making the postoperative process a bit smoother
- Special machines push warm air into the patient gowns; keeping patients warm promotes postoperative healing
- Our healing environment includes sofa beds in every private room, open visiting hours and family resource areas that make each family's experience better
When you’re having surgery, it’s natural to be a little nervous. But we believe an informed, prepared patient is a more relaxed patient. Know what to expect before, during and after your surgery.
