Licensed practical nurses (LPN) perform doctor’s prescriptions. They help the doctor during manipulation (for example, determination of blood group), take blood from a vein for biochemical research and send (deliver) to the laboratory and administer blood transfusions and drips. They administer drugs and different injections. Injections can be given intravenously, intramuscularly, intradermally, or subcutaneously. Injections are the best and the safest way of injecting medication into a patient. LP Ns provide cleaning and changing dressings to ensure proper healing. They are responsible for storage and distribution of medicines, dressing material. The nurses keep all the drugs in special drug cabinets. All the drugs have special labels. Patients are not allowed to take medicines themselves because some drugs are poisonous and their over dosage of some of them may cause unfavorable reactions or even death. They ensure exam rooms have appropriate supplies. They prepare instruments and a medical sterile tray. They perform the current and general cleaning of treatment rooms.

The operating theatre

Surgery is carried out in the operating theatre. Great care is taken to make sure that operations take place in sterile conditions - free from microorganisms. The surgeon and his/her assistants wash or scrub up, put on surgical gowns, masks and gloves. The patient's skin is prepared by disinfecting it with antiseptic solution. This is known as pre- op the patient.

The operation begins when the surgeon makes an incision or cut. Control of bleeding is very important. A swab is a pad of cotton or other material used to soak up blood from the operation site. Bleeding vessels are tied with ligatures. Drains may be inserted to carry away fluid. Various methods are used to close the wound, for example sutures (also known as stitches). Finally, the wound is covered with a dressing. When patients leave the operating theatre, nurses monitor them very closely during the crucial post - operative period. Nurses check vital signs every few minutes until patient regains consciousness.
