The Surgery department at St. Francis Medical Center unit has ten operating suites and we are expanding to 16 suites by April 2020. Daily, we meet the challenges of caring for a multitude of disease processes needing surgical intervention. We work with patients from toddlers to geriatrics and our specialties include: general, gynecology, robotics, oral surgery, dental, orthopedics, ENT, urology, podiatry, spine, breast and ophthalmology patients. An OR nurse takes care of one patient at a time and works with a surgical tech, surgeon and anesthesiologist throughout the day. Teamwork is essential and the nurse isautonomous in his/her practice. Patient interaction is quick, so it is imperative that a relationship be attained, and rapport is established as the nurse enters the OR so that the patient has trust in the nurse.

As a nurse working in the operating room, they have a great responsibility to be a patient advocate as our patients are anesthetized and cannot make decisions for their care independently. It is our duty to make sure that we provide the patient the best outcome possible. This team is supportive and works well together. Success of our associates is important, and we strive every day to make sure that happens. The OR is a world of its own and is such an exciting place because you never know what is going to come through the double doors.
