Belief at RASA

We want all surgical assistants to become an integral part of the OR team. Keep in mind that our mission, values, and goals are directed toward improving patients outcomes. Thanks to our current and innovative instruction, our students develop the skills they need to succeed as a surgical assistant. Through knowledge and understanding ethical principles, our students meet the strict standards of an SA, as defined by the American College of Surgeons. So how exactly does RASA training differ from other programs? It’s actually pretty simple. We deliver a cost-effective, convenient and comprehensive educational path to achieve our vision, as well as yours of obtaining surgical assistant certification.

Why Choose SA 281 from RASA?

You can feel comfortable knowing that our surgical assisting program is based on the Core Curriculum for the Surgical First Assistant. We stress the combination of comprehensive surgical knowledge and intraoperative skills. Plus, students dive into the expanded role and functions of an SA. Our instructors take it the program one step further, though. Students can look forward to an in-depth study of OR procedures, concepts, and emergency preparedness to ensure the utmost preparation.

Here are just a few ways that SA 281 will give your career the boost it needs:

  • Quick turnaround – Students gain access to our online program with a start on the 1st the following month after you turn in your application. So there’s very little waiting on your end!
  • Wound Closure Training System – We provide our students with the innovative Wound Closure Kit shortly after enrollment. This makes an ideal way to get ahead of the game with learning basic through advanced suture/tying skills.
  • Resources galore – Students absolutely love our newly released program that features a multimedia online site. Feel free to take advantage of a guided home study, video instruction, self-assessment quizzes, interactive activities, and so many other Internet resources, tutorials, and 3D anatomy.
  • An easier internship experience – How nice would it be to have the chance to complete the supervised clinical internship at your local facility and under the direction of surgeons of your choice? That’s exactly what RASA offers students! Though our program teaches multi-specialty, we don’t require rotations. Therefore, you can complete your clinical cases in one or more specialties. It’s yet another way RASA provides flexibility for our students.  

We offer learning flexibility, no student loans, optional payment plans and the state-of-the-art curriculum. For those reasons and more, see why so many surgical professionals are choosing RASA to advance their career. Contact us today to get started with RASA training.
