edwardspeter+FollowWhy anesthesia care goes far beyond surgeryMost people think anesthesiologists just “put you to sleep” for surgery, but their role is so much deeper. They’re the ones watching over your vital signs, managing pain, and stepping in if anything goes wrong—before, during, and after your procedure. In Michigan, new legislation is pushing for even more transparency and consent, especially for sensitive exams while patients are under anesthesia. It’s about building trust and making sure patients know exactly who’s caring for them and what’s happening to their bodies. How important is this kind of transparency to you when you’re in the hospital? #Health #BodyHealth #PatientSafety00Share
