Brackenridge Hospital in Austin, Texas is having a “Mock Surgery Day” on 2/6/10 from 8:00am-3:00pm. In the Clinical Education Center, of the hospital, there will be designated areas set up as operating rooms. Each area will reflect different surgical procedures performed at the hospital. Medical staff will be on hand to talk about what happens during surgery.
The program is designed for kids and adults alike. Scrub attire and surgical masks will be provided for visitors so they can really “get a feel” of an OR environment. The event takes approximately 2 hours to go through.
For more information please contact: Elois Currivan or see their website at (http://www.seton.net/clinical_education_classes_and_events/classes/mock_surgery)
Supporters of the project included Vantage Outsourcing whom’s Cataract Division will be assisting the hospital in demonstrating the various aspects of Cataract Surgery.
