| Fee: | HK$700 (Nursing Symposium & Scientific Symposia on 23 Nov (1 day)) |

Nursing is an art that never ends, with empathy and compassion at the heart of what defines it. The past few years of the COVID-19 pandemic have expedited the evolution of perioperative nursing. The possibility to broaden the scope of perioperative nursing care is being investigated, from the preoperative to the postoperative phase. This year's nursing symposium programme will take the audience on an exciting trip, showcasing the potential of our enlarged perioperative nursing position, from the nurse-led preoperative anaesthetic clinic to the extended Postoperative Anaesthesia Care Unit service to nurse led pain management. The eagerness to share and be inspired by our professional guest speakers could not wait any longer. Join the ASM today and seize these opportunities to see the flourishing of perioperative nursing.
