Stay Healthy While Enjoying Your Summer!
JUL 19, 2024Keep yourself energized with healthy foods so you can feel your best all summer long.
Read MorePatients and families often wonder why they are asked to arrive so early before for their medical procedure. Often, the health care team has many tasks to do before you are ready. These all involve making sure you are safe, and we don’t want to rush this important time.
Here are a few examples of the things that might happen before your procedure:
Make sure you bring your glasses, insurance cards, driver’s license or identification, medications in their original bottles, and a copy of your advanced directives if you have them. Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Please leave jewelry and valuables at home. No nail polish please… your nail beds give us clues to your oxygen level.
Our nurses want to make sure you have all of your questions answered before your procedure. If you have any questions about your procedure at CHI Health Nebraska Heart, please call (402) 328-3656 and we will be happy to assist you. If you are having a procedure at another location, just give them a call if you have questions.
