Operating Room Nurse Question:

In certain situations, especially when a doctor is not immediately available, nurses may be required to administer first-aid or emergency treatment. When emergency situations arise, nurses are often nearby because they are tasked with monitoring patients who are recuperating. Therefore, they are the first health care professionals to provide assistance to a patient experiencing an emergency situation. You may wish to add to this answer with an example from your own experience in which you had to administer first-aid or emergency treatment and explain the procedure that you applied to the patient.
