Influencing healthcare
Representing the views of theatre nurses, Operating Department Practitioners and perioperative staff is important to us. Influencing healthcare policy and provision is our key objective. We listen to your views through consultations, regional study days, online surveys and networking events.
Sharing skills
Your perioperative education and CPD benefit from AfPP membership. Our discussion forums enable you to share best practice with theatre nurses, ODPs and perioperative colleagues. You can get support from AfPP's professional and clinical advisory service and you can save CPD information in our online CPD area.
Standards & guidance
ODPs, theatre nurses and all perioperative carers benefit from our standards and guidance which are recognised as clinical benchmarks. We have a comprehensive online archive of clinical articles. You can also benefit from joining our Specialist Interest Groups and buying our books including two new publications - Supporting students and Safeguards for invasive procedures.
