Today was the first day of school, and labs. As the surgery Teachers Assistant (TA) we could not do much the first day, as there were no surgeries. So we, the other TA, Maura, and I cleaned the surgery suite and helped put the order away, and brought a few items up to the rat lab. We cleaned the surgery suite by dusting off the lights and wiping down the counters and tables, also dusting off any other surface that looked dirty. We also cleaned and organized all of the cabinets and other supply areas. Towards the end of the lab we were able to help out by going over some of the machines with the students; the machines included the anesthesia machines, blood pressure, capnography, suction and ECG machines.
