Special Needs Adults

We understand that loved ones who depend upon others for daily living require special attention. The following tips will help make care for these adults easier at Vascular & Vein Institute of Siouxland.

Consent

The legal guardian needs to sign a consent form for the procedure and anesthesia on or before the day of the procedure.

For Admission

Please bring the patient’s recent health history and medication information.

Personal Attendant

Special needs patients require a parent, legal guardian, or another responsible adult to remain throughout the procedure. A personal attendant will be required to stay with the patient for 24 hours after discharge.
