Making the transition to the perioperative clinical educator role
1Methodist Hospital, Indianapolis, IN, USA.
Abstract:
Obtaining a desired position within the field of perioperative nursing can prove to be a daunting task. If one desires to become a perioperative clinical educator, the most logical place to start is to assume the role of a preceptor or mentor to novice nurses as they enter the field. Additionally, volunteering for committee work and participating in projects as they arise will demonstrate to perioperative leaders the skills and the ambition to advance. Furthermore, affiliation with professional nursing organizations will provide the networking resources and professional development tools that are needed for success.
