Department Description


The Perianesthesia Care Units at Bayfront Medical Center include the Pre-operative (prep), Post-Anesthesia Care Units (PACU), and the 23-hour stay. The team of perianesthesia specialty nurses provides dynamic, compassionate care for a wide variety of surgical patients for adults and adolescents (13 and up) in the ambulatory care setting.

In preparing patients for surgery, we assure their readiness and provide preoperative teaching for patients and their families.

An interdisciplinary team of nurses, surgeons, specialty physicians, anesthesiologists and respiratory therapists work to initiate the recovery from surgery.

The perianesthesia nurses work collaboratively with anesthesia providers, surgeons, and other members of the interdisciplinary team. In addition to the Unit Director and Assistant Unit Director, this area is also supported by a Perianesthesia Nurse Educator.
