What is a Surgery RNFA?

A Surgery RNFA (Registered Nurse First Assistant) is a specialized registered nurse who assists surgeons during procedures. They provide hands-on support by handling instruments, controlling bleeding, suturing, and ensuring patient safety. RNFAs work closely with the surgical team to improve efficiency and outcomes.
