Abstract:
Perioperative nursing typically is a small part of nursing school curricula, which makes it difficult to recruit new graduates into the perioperative field. St Luke's Episcopal Hospital, Houston, has taken a unique approach to addressing this problem by establishing a collaborative relationship with Prairie View A&M University, Houston. This collaborative relationship introduces perioperative nursing to nursing students who may never have considered the OR as an area of practice. In addition, it provides an opportunity for students to network with perioperative nurses, and it serves as a method for recruiting new graduates to St Luke's Episcopal Hospital.
