    The PAT / PreOp / PACU RN is responsible to handle inbound pre-operative patients to ensure patients receive quality pre-operative screening for our surgical procedures and Post anesthetic care patients emerging from the haze of anesthesia. There are several tasks a PACU nurse needs to perform in a post-operative unit such as guiding patients to consciousness and assisting them in handling personal needs in the first few hours after surgery.

    A PAT / PreOp / PACU nurse is important not just for their role as a guide in the outcome of a surgery but also for handling medication administration duties which are very important at this stage. Even though most patients do not remember the PAT / PreOp / PACU nurse that attended to their needs, they play an imperative role in helping patients start on the road to recovery.

    Position Responsibilities

    Pre-admissions Testing Nurse Duties :

  • Pre-admission testing nurse or PAT nurse duties include overseeing intake, during which you perform an initial physical assessment and interview the patient to obtain their medical history.
  • PAT duties include performing any tests the surgeon has ordered, such as an EKG, and may be expected to draw blood for lab work.
  • PAT nurses are often among the first people patients deal with as they prepare to have surgery. The PAT nurse is expected to help patients understand the process, answer any questions they might have, and discuss their post-surgical care plan with them.
  • Preoperative Duties of Nurse :

  • Manage patients' admission processes to preoperative department in a hospital.
  • Assess the status of patients' health in pre-op and ensure accuracy of identification wristband.
  • Ensure that operative and informed consents are in order.
