I am sorry to you dedicated OR nurses who use this board for serious topics but I had no where to turn. Usually I do my posts on the student forums, because I'm a second semester student in an ADN program. I just am overwhelmed with all the areas of nursing and I was hoping I could get some insight. Do OR nurses have a group of patients to care for or are they strictly in the OR and where the patients come from or go to is of none of their concern? Do they make incisions, sutures, do surgery??? I have so many questions. Where can I get these kinds of answers? I don't know any one who is an OR nurse. Thank for your time.
