PreOptimisation is about optimising patient health and well-being before planned surgery. We know that preparing well before an operation not only reduces the risks of complications but also speeds up recovery.
UHSussex PreOptimisation is here to support patients with making positive lifestyle changes that improve future health by connecting them with community services and local opportunities.
One of our key aims is to help patients become smokefree before planned surgery. We are excited to offer our patients the swap2stop scheme which provides a free vape starter kit for patients wishing to quit smoking tobacco and optimise health before surgery.
