BWH last week celebrated National Surgical Technologist Week to honor surgical technologist staff for the contributions they make every day in the Operating Room. Surgical technologists are responsible for securing the presence of all supplies and equipment required for various procedures, anticipating the needs of the surgical team to ensure the procedure runs smoothly and maintaining the integrity of the sterile field by recognizing and resolving any breaks in technique.
Claire Fitzgerald-O’Shea, RN, nurse manager of the OR, distributed special pins to all surgical technologists to acknowledge their important role. Also, several surgical technologists entered a raffle and won memberships to the Association of Surgical Technologists.
