Surgery Day: Understanding to Provide Better Care


To enhance the healthcare teams’ knowledge of the various surgical specialties practiced at the clinic, a training day dedicated to the nursing staff is being organized by the Genolier Clinic and hosted at the Genolier Innovation Hub, coordinated by Kelly Duarte Almeida, a surgical nurse in the surgery department.
