Perioperative practitioners, including Surgical Care Practitioners (SCPs) and Surgical First Assistants (SFAs), are an integral part of the modern surgical workforce. The aim of the Faculty of Perioperative Care is to offer support and career development opportunities for practitioners in this field, with regards to education, training and the setting of standards.
The FPC 10th Annual Conference will be held on Saturday 22 February 2025 at RCSEd Birmingham Office.
The FPC Annual Conference with plenary and parallel sessions is open to all perioperative practitioners, as well as surgeons who work closely with Advanced Practitioners (e.g. Surgical Care Practitioners, Surgical First Assistants, Physician Associates and Operating Department Practitioners) and have an interest in the future of the surgical team.
The Conference will provide a face-to-face learning experience for perioperative non-medical practitioners working across the spectrum of different surgical specialties; enabling you to meet and hear from a range of speakers.
