The exception is outpatients who receive local sedation - they recover in the Preoperative Nursing Unit.
Upon admission to the PACU, patients are assessed by registered nurses and physicians. All patients are assessed for pain. Activities performed include airway management, hemodynamic stability, neurological stability, and pain management. After recovery from anesthesia, patients over 13 who require an overnight stay or longer are transferred to the hospital's Short-Stay Surgical Unit.

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
