Abstract
This systematic review used the Joanna Briggs Institute Qualitative Assessment and Review Instrument to manage, appraise, analyse and synthesize textual data in order to present the best available information in relation to how patients experience nursing interventions and care during the perioperative period in the day surgery setting. Some of the significant findings that emerged from the systematic review include the importance of pre‐admission contact, provision of relevant, specific education and information, improving communication skills and maintaining patient privacy throughout their continuum of care.Keywords
