Published

Specializes in O.R. Nursing - ENT, CTC, Vasc..

This directive was made in 2014.  Amended in 2023.  Do all VA O.R.s know about it?  If so, how do you handle new employees with O.R. experience who are shocked that we have to count instruments even on cataracts, blepharoplasties and carpal tunnels?
