The team at Hurstville Private Hospital, along with Neurosurgeon - Dr Vini Khurana, has held a Staff education seminar on Craniotomies today at the hospital.

The education seminar was organised as a result of Hurstville Private Hospital who is due to perform the surgery on their first patient in the coming months.

A craniotomy is the surgical removal of a section of the skull bone to access the brain. This procedure is commonly used for brain tumours, subdural haematomas and sub-chranial haematomas.

The event hosted both clinical and non-clinical staff who will be involved in the care of patients who undergo the new surgery.

Hospital educator- Racha Baddah says " the staff gained a deeper understanding, knowledge, skills and attitudes for effective patient centred-care and service to a diverse population.
