Admission and preparation

Focused information to help you understand this topic and the next steps.

Admission and preparation

Nursing staff will complete admission checks and help you change into hospital clothing. You will then move to the pre-operative area, where you will meet Angus, the anaesthetist and members of the theatre team.

A support person may be able to remain with you during part of this preparation, subject to hospital policy, but cannot enter the operating theatre.
