In my previous role, I assisted in various surgical procedures by preparing the operating room, sterilizing instruments, and ensuring all equipment was functional. During surgeries, I handed instruments to surgeons, maintained a sterile field, and monitored patient vitals. My attention to detail and ability to anticipate the needs of the surgical team ensured smooth operations and patient safety.

I thrive in high-pressure environments by staying calm and focused. I prioritize tasks, communicate clearly with the surgical team, and maintain a high level of organization. My ability to remain composed under pressure ensures that I can effectively support the team and respond quickly to any unexpected changes during surgery.

I strictly adhere to sterilization protocols, including proper hand hygiene, wearing appropriate PPE, and ensuring all instruments and surfaces are sterilized. I also monitor the surgical team for compliance with sterile techniques and promptly address any breaches. My commitment to maintaining a sterile environment minimizes the risk of infections and ensures patient safety.

I prioritize tasks based on urgency and communicate effectively with each surgeon to understand their specific needs. I stay organized by keeping track of instruments and supplies, and I anticipate the next steps in each procedure. My ability to multitask and maintain clear communication ensures that I can efficiently support multiple surgeons without compromising the quality of care.

During a procedure, I noticed that a critical instrument was missing from the tray. I quickly informed the surgeon and retrieved the instrument from the sterilization area without delaying the surgery. My proactive approach and quick thinking ensured that the procedure continued smoothly, highlighting my ability to handle unexpected challenges effectively.
