Jamieson, I. (2008). The mobile operating theatre project. In Jean Ross (Ed.), Rural nursing: Aspects of practice (pp.81-97). [Dunedin]: Rural Health Opportunities.
Abstract: This chapter firstly presents the development of a mobile operating theatre project, which was implemented in 2002 to provide rural day-stay surgery. Secondly, it discusses the process and findings of a research project undertaken with the purpose of evaluating a perioperative (theatre and recovery) reskilling programme offered to 42 rural nurses from nine secondary hospitals, conducted over nine months in 2001. The training was given to nurses prior to the introduction of a mobile operating theatre service, and was seen as a key part of the service contract.
