How do I prepare my child for surgery?
What information do I need to know about my child's particular surgery?

If you are going to re-join your child in the room where they recover from surgery, you may want to read "A Parent's Guide to PACU (Post Anesthesia Care Unit)."

While your child is recovering, his healthcare providers will do everything possible to control his pain and make him feel comfortable and safe. This booklet will show you ways to work with your child's healthcare providers to manage your child's pain.

What should I know to take my child home after surgery?
