It is important that you have been given time and all the information you require before having surgery. This link will explain this in more detail: Information for patients and carers (nhsgrampian.org).

This website has been developed to help inform you and your carers about what you need to know before, during and after your surgery by providing useful and practical information including:

• What you can expect during each stage
• What information do you need to bring with you?
• Useful questions to ask the people looking after you
• Advice on self-management and care at home
• Knowing who to turn to if support is needed

NHS Grampian's Endowment Fund generously provided the funding for the creation of this website.
