If you’re very old or very sick, a bit of extra care before and after your operation ensures you’re ready for surgery in the first place and have the best chance of a good recovery once the operation is over. We call this the perioperative care model.

The POMC&RRWG is dedicated to conducting an annual review and update of recommendations, resources, reference links, and incorporating new evidence to keep up with continuous expansion of perioperative medicine.

Your perioperative care team will coordinate your care before, during, and after surgery to help you get what you want out of your operation.

The Perioperative Care Working Group (PCWG) developed the perioperative care framework.

The working group is a multidisciplinary and collaborative group responsible for developing the diploma educational content, including clinical immersion activities and online learning resources and assessments.
