Orthopaedic nurses play an important role in recovery from musculoskeletal diseases and traumas. They provide patients with professional and competent care in hospitals, clinics, private homes, nursing homes and physical offices. They are responsible for different procedures, including removing stitches, installation of orthoses, installation and removal of splints etc.
