This includes coordinating scheduling, education of clinical staff, ensuring availability and care of instruments and equipment, and participating in research efforts. The RNFA is directly supervised by the surgeon and performs functions specifically identified and consistent with training received. The RNFA functions interdependently, and collaboratively, with the surgeon and applies knowledge, skill, and judgment necessary to assist the surgeon in performing a safe operation that yields optimal results for the patient.
