Question 2 of 25

How do you keep yourself up to date and educated in the nursing profession? And why do you feel this will continue to be important as a Band 7 Theatre Nurse?

"Throughout my career, I've been actively involved in the British Nursing Association and the Association for Perioperative Practice. In recent years, I've made it a priority to attend the AfPP national conference because it is a great opportunity to talk with other theatre nurses, hear great presentations, and learn about new equipment and technologies in the industry. I also really enjoy the Journal of Perioperative Practice for its literature reviews and research-based articles because I'm very interested in new studies to better patient care. As your next Band 7 theatre nurse, I will continue to participate in these associations and urge that my staff will as well."
