Services:

Registered nurses in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit use intensive monitoring and aggressive pain management techniques to assure a safe and comfortable recovery from anesthesia and surgery.

Special procedures such as cardioversion (electrically converting hear rhythm), and anesthetic blocks for management of acute and chronic pain are also performed in this special care area.
