Nursing services available in Vancouver and Langley
Please note, if you are having a general anesthesia, oral or intravenous sedation of any kind you must be driven to and from the surgery centre and have a responsible adult stay with you for 48hrs. This is to ensure you recover from the anaesthetic and to provide assistance to you when you may have some limited movement (depending on the procedure you have).
If you are travelling to Vancouver alone you can hire the services of professional nursing care to provide transportation and care for the first 48hrs. Here are a few local companies who can provide this service:
