I apologize for being a “ghost” member for the last few months.
I feel compelled to give my personal observations from the ECT procedure at Genrose Hospital.
I’ve read the pros and cons listed in this forum regarding ECT.
The staff was involved prior to the procedure and answered all questions.
A slight headache and memory loss was of the immediate time period following the procedure and was very sleepy. Nursing staff took notes and evaluated the recovery. They remained attentive and were reassuring by just being there. This was not an easy decision to make. Prayers to you and yours.

Until you feel comfortable, educating yourself with information will benefit your loved one. Most importantly ask questions.
My prayers are with you.
