Surgical Draping 101: A Hands-On Lab for Surgical Professionals

Draping is more than a task — it's your first step in maintaining a sterile field, setting up for success, and protecting the patient.
In this FTLOS Skills Lab, we’re getting hands-on with the fundamentals and finesse of surgical draping.

Whether you're a student learning for the first time or a recent grad looking to sharpen your technique, this lab offers a supportive space to practice with intention, get feedback from experienced techs, and build confidence before stepping into the OR.

This session includes:

• A focused walkthrough of best practices and techniques for surgical draping
• Real-world guidance from experienced surgical professionals
• A hands-on draping lab with individual and small-group practice
• Opportunities to ask questions and receive peer-to-peer support
