Good morning.
!I am pleased to see so many of you here today.
My name is Bridg. I am a nurse in the operating room at this hospital.
Your training staff asked me to talk about the safety checklist we have to use before all surgery.

with a short video, showing you the different steps a patient goes through before reaching the operating room.

Well ! after this film? No?
.............OK! So, . Did this film help you to define the potential risks for a patient out of control?

-I am Jane. Yes indeed, it is really scary but we didn't see what the checklist is composed of.

-There are twenty items to be carried out throughout surgery, and I would like you to find those items.

.....

-Great! You have found lots of them. ?

-Yes, I would like to know whether it's hard to work as part of an operating room team.

-If you don't mind please? But if you are interested, about that item.

- I am afraid , so, now I'll give you the checklist and by saying that a change in the mentality of caregivers is required for this checklist to be usable. I hope you'll be largely supportive of it during your training in our department,

.
