To prepare for a theatre and perioperative nursing NHS interview, expect questions on the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist and Five Steps to Safer Surgery, swab and instrument counts, NatSSIPs and LocSSIPs, never events, the sterile field, patient positioning, and recognising deterioration and airway problems in recovery. Panels also want to hear how you speak up in a theatre team, protect patients who are asleep and cannot advocate for themselves, and keep learning across scrub, anaesthetic and recovery practice.
