Excellence in periop care goes beyond the OR: comprehensive pre-op assessments, team collaboration, and patient-focused strategies lead to better outcomes. Proud we’re making this happen at Blacktown Hospital. Still lots to do🙏🏽@DrDanetteW @WestSydHealth @RACSurgeons @CPOC_News

Hooray! It's published - my new paper on how to get surgery even better. All about perioperative care - for surgeons and every member of the team. More at @CPOC_News. More efficient, safer, nicer, happier... Thanks @RCSnews for making it open access: publishing.rcseng.ac.uk/doi/epdf/10.13…
