How Do You Become A Surgical (Theatre) Nurse?


Please help! How do you become a theatre nurse?

Go to uni and study to be either an Adult Nurse (3 years) or an ODP (2 years?). Look at NHS careers at http://www.nhscareers.nhs.uk/atoz.shtml#...

or UCAS at www.ucas.ac.uk.

Hope this helps. Jess.

exactly the same way, you take the prerequisites
and then apply for a nursing program
you will go to different areas of the hospital for your clinical
once you graduate and pass the nclex exam and get your RN
you will be able to apply
