Get the Kind of Assistance Your Really Need in the OR

When you’re in the operating room, you need and deserve a surgical first assistant who can actually help you perform your surgery effectively, efficiently, and skillfully. Getting a Surgical Technician or Operating Room Nurse to first assist is often less than ideal, despite their desire to help. Have you been doing without a good surgical first assistant for so long you’ve forgotten how great it is to have someone you can trust and depend on? You just can’t focus on the task at hand when you have to keep one eye on the surgery and one eye on an assistant who wasn’t trained to first assist.

Finding your own surgical first assistants is often one of your biggest hassles. Eliminate the hassle of having to make do with anyone available at the hospital or having to locate a proper assistant last minute. Insist on proper first surgical assistant training for someone on the hospital staff or have one of your own staff trained to first assist.
