Preadmission
We offer a complimentary Preadmission Clinic service to better prepare you for your hospital stay.

If you require major surgery, will be hospitalised for stay periods of three days or longer (i.e. joint replacements, spinal surgery or thoracic surgery), or are nervous about your surgery, you may be asked to book an appointment at our Preadmission Clinic.
The purpose of the appointment is to assess your fitness for surgery and anaesthesia, to streamline your admission and to provide you with the best possible preparation for your surgery.
Your Appointment May Include
- a comprehensive nursing assessment
- blood tests and x-rays may also be arranged
- completion of admission forms
- discharge and after-care equipment arrangements
- ECG, blood pressure, temperature
- education relating to pre-surgery and post-surgery procedures.
Please bring with you the completed forms that your surgeon has given you, including your signed surgical consent form, a list of any previous operations that you have undergone and your current and previous illnesses.
