How to Add a Surgeon/Anaesthesiologist to the Theatre List
The Theatre Manager will assist the Practice in managing their Theatre bookings. The bookings can be made in the diary and you will be able to print or download the theatre list from these bookings. The Doctor can either keep the theatre bookings on a separate diary or block out the times for Theatre in their current daily diary. You will have to Enable and Set up the Theatre Manager and the theatre bookings in the settings and then create the theatre list for it to display in the diary.
A Surgeon is a Doctor who specialises in a certain Medical field and treats conditions that may require Surgery. The Surgeon is the Doctor who will perform the Surgery on the Patient.
A Doctor who specialises in anaesthesia is known as an Anesthesiologist. The Anesthesiologist is a Doctor who specialises in perioperative care, anaesthetic planning, anaesthetic administration and will administer the anaesthesia in Theatre together with the Surgeon.
