Peri Operative Nursing is the care of a patient before, during and after an operation. It has become a highly specialized area because it costs less to care for a patient in this way, and to discharge the patient immediately after the patient is well. Admitting and discharging patients as inpatients costs lots of money. So, perioperative nursing, is become more popular as day procedures etc increase.
