Going Home

After a procedure you cannot drive home and will need an adult driver to take you home.  Taxi cab, bus or any other public transportation is not acceptable, unless accompanied by another adult.

You will be given written discharge instructions.

Since it is normal to feel drowsy, dizzy or lightheaded after receiving sedation, we encourage you to refrain from the following activities for 24 hours:

  • Signing important papers or making important decisions;
  • Driving or operating any equipment or machinery;
  • Smoking;
  • Drinking alcoholic beverages
