What to expect when you come for a Surgical Procedure at Sechelt Hospital

To help patients and families prepare, alleviate anxieties, and improve patient outcomes and experiences, the nursing team at Sechelt Hospital requested support from Sechelt Hospital Foundation to produce a patient education video. Now available on our website and YouTube, it takes viewers on a tour of the hospital to see what a patient can expect before a day-procedure, and what to expect afterward.
