Field Descriptions
| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The official name or identifying number of the operating room (e.g., "OR 1", "Maternity Theater"). This is what staff will see when scheduling surgeries. |
| Description | Additional details about the operating room. You can include information about its location (e.g., "East Wing, 2nd Floor") or the specific types of procedures it is equipped to handle (e.g., "Equipped for orthopedic surgeries"). |
Tip: Use clear, standardized names for your operating theaters to prevent confusion during surgery scheduling. If a room has specific limitations or specialized equipment, be sure to note that in the Description field so scheduling staff are aware.
