Discharge

Discharge is very important to make sure that your transition from hospital to home runs as smoothly as possible. Westside private staff will keep you updated on your discharge. If there are any issues please seek advice from the staff caring for you and plans can be put in place for your safe return home.

During your stay at Westside private if you have had sedation or general anesthetic within the past 24 hours you will need to be accompanied by an adult. Please do not drive a motor vehicle, operate machinery or domestic appliances or drink alcohol for at least 24 hours post-anesthetic.

Leaving the hospital please make sure that you have all your personal effects, medications, imaging and follow up instructions.

If you have any queries or concerns please feel free to contact our friendly staff who will endeavour to answer any questions you may have. For additional information please download a copy of our patient’s information booklet.
