Surgical nursing and the theatre environment can often be daunting, but with knowledge of effective protocols you can provide gold standard care to surgical patients throughout the perioperative period.
In this learning series with Jessica Gilby, a range of topics is explored to achieve a theatre protocol that utilises your nursing skills and strengthens your abilities. By creating care bundles within practice, we can minimise common complications in the operating room and prevent surgical site infections for our patients.
