Welcome To The Preoperative Association

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.

Dear Members,

In response to COVID-19 and the increased demands placed on the NHS, the Preoperative Association have taken the decision to cancel all planned study days until further notice, and the annual Preoperative Association Conference due to have been held in London in November 2020. Please be advised that we are unable to process requests for guidelines during this period. We would like to thank our membership for their continued support at this difficult time. Stay safe everyone.

From the President on behalf of all the Council.
