Recovery/Post Anesthesia Care

Recovery & Post Anesthesia Care Unit at Treasure Valley Hospital

The Post Anesthesia Care Unit is comprised of two phases:

Phase I is a calm environment where you will emerge from anesthesia. Here we begin to address pain control, prevent and/or treat nausea and deliver warming therapies. A Clinical Discharge Criteria Scoring System is used to evaluate your readiness to move to Phase II recovery where we discuss home care and pain management instructions.
