Improve your knowledge through this program, where you will find the best didactic material with real clinical cases. Learn here about the latest advances in the specialty to be able to perform a quality practice”

Each of the wide variety of surgical interventions that are performed requires a specific procedure, a specific technique and the exclusive surgical material for that intervention. One thing they all have in common is a series of steps and rules that all team members should know in detail. They must also know the general functioning of the surgical department in order to prevent and avoid common risks while carrying out professional work. Healthcare institutions are well aware of this and demand academic profiles with a specialization that adapts to the requirements of the job and professionals who are qualified and endorsed to carry out the work.

This Postgraduate diploma contains the most complete and updated scientific program on the market, with the main objective of training in generic and specific competencies in a surgical process and facilitates the updating of the professional in a practical way and adapted to their needs. The modules that make up this course are aimed at updating the knowledge of nursing professionals who already perform their functions in the surgical field and for those new professionals who wish to develop their functions in the surgical field where a high qualification is required and increase their professional competence in the provision of surgical nursing care to the patient, before, during and after surgery in a holistic manner.

The innovative educational method, which includes real clinical cases and exercises to bring the development of the program closer to the surgical practice, is based on Problem Based Learning, by means of which the student must try to solve the different professional practice situations that arise during the program. For this reason, you will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned and experienced experts in the field of radiology with extensive teaching experience. This ensures that the professional, whether or not they have worked in any of the sections that make up the perioperative process, integrates into their work practice the experience of professionals already working in leading hospitals at a national and international level with a high scientific, technological and humanistic level.

This knowledge will facilitate the provision of quality care throughout the surgical process to ensure the safety of the patient and the professional at all times.
