Perioperative Nurses Week 2025

This week, we honour the incredible dedication of our perioperative nurses across Cura Day Hospitals Group facilities. In 2025, the theme is S.T.A.R.S, a tribute to the vital roles that make up the perioperative journey:

S.T.A.R.S stands for:
🔹 Scrub/Scout Nurses
🔹 Technicians
🔹 Anaesthetics
🔹 Recovery
🔹 Support (including administration, managers, cleaners, and educators)

At Cura, we are deeply grateful for the skill, compassion, and excellence our perioperative nurses bring to every patient, every day. Their unwavering commitment continues to elevate the standard of care across our hospitals.

💙 Thank you to all our perioperative nurses and support teams. You truly make a difference!
