Anesthesiology is an essential part of surgery. Unfortunately, it also tends to be a serious pressure point within the flow of surgical services. This includes clinical staff scheduling and overtime, which has been further exacerbated by anesthesia staffing shortages that show no signs of slowing. A poorly functioning anesthesiology department is often a symptom of a disorganized or inefficient perioperative space. This can cause ripple effects throughout a healthcare system. Despite the current state of affairs, optimizing perioperative services is a solution to mitigate the rising costs of anesthesiology. At Surgical Directions, we remain optimistic as we help clients ensure the right patient care is available at the right locations, delivered with the highest level of quality at the most reasonable cost.
