History

  • In December 1993, the Day Surgery Special Interest group was formed by a group of nurses who attended the Inaugural Same Day Surgery conference in Perth.
  • The group agreed that a formal body with a common interest in Day Surgery was needed.
  • This occurred in 1996 when the Australian Day Surgery Nurses Association -ADSNA was formed with representatives from each Australian State.
  • 1996 saw WA changed the name of their group to the current name. This was done to reflect the mixture of practice common in many of our day units.
Aims
  • to promote the free exchange of knowledge
  • to encourage recognition of the specialty
  • to maintain links with similar organisations in Australia through ADSNA
  • to pursue quality improvement in this area
  • to foster good fellowship between members
