Overview
At Blackpool Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust we aim to provide high standards of care based on current recommendations and protocols. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) is part of this and ensures that all members of the hospital and primary care staff work together to improve the patient experience throughout their stay in hospital. Recent research has recognized that patients who are maintaining a healthy lifestyle before surgery recover much better after surgery.
By identifying any problems after surgery early such as pain control or post operative nausea and vomiting we can ensure that patients are able to move around early after surgery, take on the necessary calories needed to recover and therefore ensure a timely discharge from hospital.
