Ideally an area is designated for the postoperative or postprocedure care of patients. It may vary in name or location according to its specific function within the health care facility. 
In some settings in which only local anaesthetics are used, the patient has a brief observation period in a room where the procedure was performed. When the patient’s condition is determined to be physiologically stable using criteria set by the surgeon, the patient is discharged from the facility. Dental, podiatrist, and dermatological offices often function in this capacity. 
Immediate postoperative patient care is usually provided in a designated are of the hospital or ambulatory care facility. The area may be called the recovery room (RR) or postanesthesia recovery (PAR) unit. (PACU) is used to describe a specialised area for patient recovery from anaesthesia. ]]> 2023-10-03 11:50:51 UTC https://padlet.com/d3143935/o4k9urosiah8bano/wish/2730090618 m67wrhxcrd https://padlet.com/d3143935/o4k9urosiah8bano/wish/2730097225 2023-10-03 11:55:46 UTC https://padlet.com/d3143935/o4k9urosiah8bano/wish/2730097225 https://padlet.com/d3143935/o4k9urosiah8bano/wish/2730154206 2023-10-03 12:33:42 UTC https://padlet.com/d3143935/o4k9urosiah8bano/wish/2730154206 In recovery the ODP will receive, assess and deliver patient care on the patient's arrival into the recovery area.
