#NURSE PRACTITIONER FIRST ASSISTANT SALARY PROFESSIONAL#
This module aligns with the Professional Practice Programme philosophy and is designed to be flexible and practice-led. You will mature as a critical thinking practitioner as you prepare to provide competent and skilled surgical assistance to the operating surgeon under supervision. You will build upon your prior knowledge, skills and experience as a scrub and circulating practitioner to develop in the role of the surgical first assistant and work safely and effectively as an interprofessional member of the surgical team. As a registered practitioner, the Surgical First Assistant provides continuous competent and dedicated skilled assistance under the direct supervision of the operating surgeon throughout the procedure whilst not performing any form of surgical intervention (PCC 2018).
The role of the Surgical First Assistant is now widely accepted in perioperative practice within the NHS and Independent Healthcare Sector. It can be studied as a taught course or via on-line delivery. This module allows you, a registered healthcare practitioner with a minimum of 18 months experience in the scrub role, to respond to the complex demands of perioperative practice.
