Resurgens Surgery Center is a single-specialty outpatient surgery practice that specializes in orthopedic surgery. Our surgery center is a joint venture between Resurgens Orthopedic Group and USPI, the nation's largest provider of surgical services.

The Preoperative Screening Nurse will interview patients via telephone, review the patient’s online health history with them, complete an assessment of the patient’s medical histories prior to the scheduled admission to Hershey Outpatient Surgery Center. The Preoperative Screening Nurse will gather necessary information (H&P, EKG, Physician consults, etc.) to assist in the admission planning, pre-admission screening and to provide educational instructions according to Worcester Surgical Center’s guidelines and policies and procedures.

He/she will document the explanation of pre-operative instructions to patient or significant other/guardian.

All patients are to be contacted prior to surgery to assess medical, allergy/ medication history, and provide preadmission teaching/instructions. The nurse will also work closely with the anesthesia department in coordinating the patient’s needs. The nurse can expect to care for adult patients, including the older adult through geriatric, and pediatric patients.
