The Main Operating Room is a high acuity surgery unit that serves patients of all ages and is open twenty-four hours per day, seven days a week. The Multidisciplinary team collaborates to enable the patient to return to an optimal level of function, tending to the physical, psychosocial, cultural and spiritual needs.
PROGRAM LENGTH:
The Periop 101 Program is a structured comprehensive six to eight month program for registered nurses.
ORIENTATION:
Our residency is a two part program that combines standardized, evidence-based, online curriculum with hands-on skills labs and a clinical practicum. Part 1 is a two month program that focuses on classroom, computer, and simulation training. This didactic portion is the foundations and fundamentals of operating room nursing. Part two includes full immersion into clinical rotations. Successful completion of the Periop 101 exam (80% or higher) is required to continue to full clinical rotations at week nine. Clinical experience will consist of training in all service lines during the remaining time in orientation. Nurses will become proficient in their primary duty of circulating and scrubbing will be taught as a fundamental skillset.
Periop 101 nurses will be paired with service-line preceptors during the program to complete clinical practice. Preceptors will complete evaluations at specific intervals.
