THE ORGANISATION FOR HEALTH PROFESSIONALS WORKING IN THE PREOPERATIVE FIELD

The Preoperative Association provides information, education and support for anaesthetists, nurses and other health practitioners involved in preoperative assessment and preparation. We hold regular regional educational meetings throughout the year and a national conference in November. Members enjoy discounted rates for meetings and are given online access to lectures after the meetings. They are also able to contribute to the forum section. We are currently developing standards for nurses and run an accredited training programme.
