Improving Your Experience
ESPAA Simplifies Surgery Preparation
Your doctor may refer you the Enloe Surgical and Procedural Assessment Area (ESPAA) team to prepare for your operation. This team is designed to ensure the best possible surgical experience for Enloe patients.
ESPAA has a team of registered nurses who meet with patients to provide pre-operative education, assessment and testing. When you work with this team:
- You will receive education about your upcoming surgery.
- We gather your medical history and provide you with any needed exams. Results are shared with your surgeon and anesthesiologist.
- We check for and follow up on issues to avoid a delay in your surgery.
- You receive instructions for your day of surgery. This will include how to prepare, what medications to take, where to go and your arrival time.
- You may also get more information about Enloe's robotic surgical services.
