ROTA, Spain- Petty Officer 2nd Class Gerardo Mojica-Garcia, a Surgical Technician, facilitates intraoperative teaching addressing the importance of sterility and preparation during procedures. Participants donned sterile gowns and gloves to focus on aseptic practices that can prevent contamination and prevent surgical site infections. This training is a part of Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command’s (NMRTC) Rota quarterly readiness training program focused on enhancing clinical readiness skills, at times outside of their specialization, to better prepare them for various situations in both traditional and operational settings.
