You will work closely with the Theatre Manager, Senior Nursing Team, Anaesthetic teams and Surgeons to ensure safe, effective theatre operations, smooth patient flow and high standards of clinical care.

This includes assisting anaesthetists during induction, maintenance and emergence from anaesthesia, ensuring anaesthetic equipment, airway devices, monitoring systems and emergency equipment are checked, prepared and maintained in accordance with local policies.
Responsibilities include undertaking pre-operative checks, preparing patients for surgery, maintaining dignity and confidentiality, and ensuring accurate clinical documentation. Within Recovery, you will assess and monitor patients' airway, breathing, circulation, consciousness, vital signs, pain and nausea, recognising and escalating clinical deterioration promptly and ensuring safe transfer to the appropriate clinical area.
You will maintain high standards of infection prevention and control, medicines management, safeguarding and patient safety, while participating in the management of clinical emergencies. You will support efficient theatre and recovery operations by maintaining equipment and stock levels and ensuring resources are available when required.
