Nursing services in our operating theaters

You are responsible for keeping everything running smoothly

Team work is key: In operating theaters, it is crucial that nursing staff, our surgical technologists and anesthesiologist assistants and our doctors all work together smoothly, as well as with any other colleagues involved. For this to be the case, we have to take an interdisciplinary and forward-looking approach, and appreciate the efforts of others. In particular in critical situations, it is necessary that we act capably, quickly, and flexibly. Our patients are at the center of all our efforts. Our nursing care is always directed towards ensuring the safety of patient the whole time they are in our operating theater. We use safety checklists approved by the WHO, specialty-specific operation standards and procedural guidelines. We draw these up ourselves, evaluate them as part of an ongoing process and amend them to take any issues that may arise into account. We keep an electronic record of all activities and procedures in our documentation system. Your main tasks in this area of work include taking care of the instruments and assisting during surgical procedures. You are also responsible for operating the cutting-edge technology in our operating theaters correctly, as well as for preparing all instruments and equipment before surgical procedures and ensuring everything is replaced and returned to the correct place or settings afterwards. Working in this area is physically and mentally stretching. It requires a high degree of flexibility, responsibility, professionalism and expertise.
