Women's and neonatal services
Gynaecology Day Assessment Unit
What to expect
All patients are seen by either a nurse or a health care assistant.
Vital signs will be noted, and patients will be asked to provide a urine
specimen. If required women are then seen by a doctor, who will take a history,
examine them and arrange further tests (if necessary) including:
- Pelvic or abdominal scans
- Blood tests
- Vaginal examination including a speculum examination and vaginal
swabs
