Anaesthetics at Scarborough and Bridlington
The department of anaesthetics is a part of the directorate for anaesthetics, theatres and critical care. We provide peri-operative medical care to surgical patients, assessing their fitness for anaesthesia and surgery, optimising their general condition, anaesthetising them and managing their post-operative pain and other systemic problems.
We provide these services at Scarborough Hospital, where most of the major surgical procedures take place.
At Bridlington Hospital, we run a 23 hour day care surgical centre, taking care of patients for various procedures including joint replacements and laparoscopic and laser surgeries.
Surgical services currently supported include general surgery (including colo-rectal), orthopaedics and trauma, obstetrics and gynaecology, ENT, dental, maxillo-facial surgery, ophthalmology and urology.
We have a 5-6 bedded intensive care unit, where we look after critically ill patients.
We provide an on-demand epidural service for labour pain relief.
We also provide acute and chronic pain management services at both Scarborough and Bridlington hospitals.
