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.

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.
