Operation Fascination.
Operation Fascination is an educational program about the perioperative experience targeted at the school-age community. The goals are to help children gain a better understanding of the perioperative process by incorporating it in the school curriculum and extracommunity curricula and to make the perioperative nurse more aware of school-age children's misconceptions. A literature search showed that little has been written about perioperative education of school-age children outside the health care institution. Therefore, this article shares the development and initiation of Operation Fascination as well as describes the importance and benefits of offering this type of program to the community.
