We keep your anaesthetic competencies and compliance in one place, so you can step into any anaesthetic room ready to work.
The work
Anaesthetic practice is precise, anticipatory work at the moment patients feel most vulnerable.
As an anaesthetic nurse or ODP you are the anaesthetist’s second pair of hands and eyes. You check the machine and the airway kit before the list starts, draw up and label with total accuracy, and support the patient through induction, often as the last reassuring face they see before they go under. Through the case you monitor, anticipate and hand the anaesthetist what they need before they ask, and you are ready for the moments when things change fast.
It suits practitioners who love the technical side of theatre and take quiet pride in being prepared for anything. Agency anaesthetic work lets you take those skills across different theatres and specialties, on elective and emergency lists, in a pattern that suits your life.
