    Inpatient vs. Outpatient Surgery

    Inpatient Surgery
    Complex surgical procedures requiring hospital admission. Length of stay depends on your surgeon’s recommendations and recovery progress.

    Outpatient Surgery
    Less complex or minimally invasive procedures allowing same-day discharge. Many procedures at Mason District Hospital are safely performed on an outpatient basis.


Anesthesia Services

Anesthesia is administered by our Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs) to ensure a safe, pain-free surgical experience.

Types of Anesthesia:

  • Local Anesthesia – numbs a small part of the body
  • Spinal/Regional Anesthesia – numbs a larger area
  • General Anesthesia – induces a temporary deep sleep

Before your surgery, a CRNA will interview you and develop a customized anesthesia plan. Please provide a complete list of medications, including over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and supplements. A surgical nurse will contact you with pre-operative instructions.
