How you learn

When it comes to the perioperative theatre technology course, the above colleges teach you about how you’re supposed to help as a theater assistant (helping during real operating room procedures).

So you not only learn through regular classwork but also through actual lab studies and going for internships in various hospital’s operating rooms..

Remember: As a surgical assistant (because that is essentially what you become after the course), you need to get experience with a variety of tasks that help make sure that patients are operated on safely during surgery.

In fact, as a holder of the qualification, you often have to undertake a mandatory 6-month internship in a recognized(accredited) hospital with an active operation theatre.

Typical Duties of an Operating Theater Technician/Assistant in a Hospital

1. Manage all the operation theatre resources including equipment
2. Help in sterilizing tools/equipment
3. Participate in important peri-operative technical services
4. Serve as an anesthetist assistant (help the anesthetist in administering anesthesia)
5. Operating a variety of theatre machines as well as equipment
6. Support the surgeons/registered nurses in offering clinical services especially to surgical patients in a hospital
7. Preparing the operating theatre room before surgeries
8. Providing essential first aid services(CPR)- if necessary

I should add that you may also get work as a surgical items salesperson in firms that sell operation theatre equipment/ instruments
