Welcome to OPANA
The Ontario PeriAnesthesia Nurses Association is a professional association for nurses involved in the care of clients who will shortly be, presently are or have just recently been under the influence of a sedative or anesthetic agent.
Perianesthesia nursing is considered a specialty area of nursing practice and our association has taken responsibility to define the scope of perianesthesia nursing practice.
Nursing roles include patient care, education, administration, management, consultation, advocacy and research. Our nursing practice is comprised of nursing processes, decision making, critical thinking and inquiry.
 | We are conducting a study of a new FREE information service for evidence-based pain management.

 Happy PeriAnesthesia Nurses week to all of you!
Congratulations to each and everyone of you. What a special group of nurses we are and this is the week to
acknowledge to ourselves, and have acknowledged by our friends and workplace that we are a vital part of the patient's experience and well being.
Please let us know what you did special for yourselves this week and send it to
