    The document outlines the three phases of care for a surgical patient: preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative. In the preoperative phase, important steps include obtaining informed consent, conducting a patient assessment including medical history and physical exam, discussing surgical risks and alternatives with the patient, and having the consent form signed by the patient and witnessed. The intraoperative phase involves providing care from when the patient is brought into the operating room until transferred to the recovery room after surgery. In the postoperative phase, the focus is on recovery and caring for the patient from the recovery room until they have recovered from the effects of the surgery.
