Background of existing practice in CMU Laser procedure • Weekday assisted by ECA of DSC UBM procedure • Weekday assisted by ECA of DSC
ECA on leave or not A/V Laser • Assisted by CMU nurse UBM • Assisted by CMU nurse
Reasons for production of guide book • New laser and UBM machines • New nurses join CMU • Existing nurses have limited exposure to those procedures • Increase number of non scheduled laser and UBM procedures • Lack of quick reference on machines operation in case of non schedule service
Cont’d • Guide book cannot substitute a proper training. It acts as a supplementary information so as to refresh staff’s memories.
Aim To provide a quick reference for CMU nurses on laser and UBM procedure
Objectives • To enhance staff competency in assisting ophthalmic laser and UBM procedures • To ensure patient safety • To provide high quality and efficient service
