TRAVEL SA OR The Certified Surgical Assistant, is the person who scrubs in at the field and works as the surgeons other hand. They must have a CERTIFICATE / DEGREE in SURGICAL ASSISTING from an accredited school. The certification for this is usually from the NBSTA, National Board of Surgical Technologists and Surgical Assistants, which comes when they sit for and pass their exam.
