How does the program work?

This Perioperative Nursing Program is an important part of our workforce strategy as we hire, train and retain the best in the business.  It ensures we hire for talent and attitude and skill, and ensures we continue to provide the very best care and service for our patients.

The content and approach for training utilises competency-based tools developed by our Clinical Educators.  These senior experience educators ensure nurses receive ongoing support, education & professional development on their journey.

We have a structured competency framework that gives you both the theoretical knowledge and the hands-on practical experience to feel confident in the complex area of perioperative nursing.
