Home | Preparing for Surgery | Post Anesthesia Care

Welcome to the VVMC PeriAnesthesia webpage. PeriAnesthesia refers the care given to patients leading up to surgery and the care given following surgery. The PeriAnesthesia department is composed of PreSurgical Planning, PreOp, and the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (also called the Recovery Room). PeriAnesthesia Nurses are highly experienced nurses with varied critical care backgrounds. We are all very aware of the stress related to scheduled and/ or emergency surgeries. We provide family care by educating the patient and family about the flow of our area.

We know you have choices in your health care and we thank you for choosing the Vail Valley Medical Center. PeriAnesthesia Services
