Changes in the post-surgical environment mean that patients have shorter postoperative hospital stays and spend more recovery time at home.
Nurses providing care in the postoperative setting are left with the highest risk patients and tight schedules for getting them out the door. You are now challenged to ensure safety, minimize complications, and support an optimal recovery along the way.
If you are providing care to patients recovering from surgical intervention, you are guaranteed to sharpen your skills through updated knowledge gained by attending this critical one-day live webcast!
