I’m purely writing this because I did get a few mixed messages from the forum and emails received etc staying I should arrive with my chaperone on admission so I would like to clear it up for anyone else who is wondering the same. I arrived at Preston First Trust Hospital on 26th September 2018 with an admission time of 9am. I arrived alone, admitted myself, went in to surgery around 12:00 and was woke up at 12:55 ish. It was absolutely fine for me to go through this alone but you do NEED your chaperone there on discharge to collect you. I left at roughly 4:45 but before this I had tea and toast, 1 ibruprofen tablet, had been up out of bed and for a wee. I hope this helps someone 🙂
