Is your child having surgery at BC Children’s Hospital?
When you have a child scheduled for surgery, it can be stressful for the entire family. Much of the anxiety comes from not knowing what to expect. BC Children’s Hospital has developed a virtual tour which provides parents and children with an up-close look at exactly what happens before and after surgery. Included in the tour are a look inside the surgical day care unit, operating and recovery rooms. |
