I've just started my last semester of nursing school and have been given my Capstone information. I'll be in the OR and must come up with 5 goals for my time here. The OR was not my first choice (but I'm excited and ready to learn what I can from this experience) and I feel unfamiliar with all of the things an OR nurse is responsible for, which is making it tricky to select goals.
I know a lot of the OR nurse's role involves charting specific information about the surgery, so I thought a goal for charting would be acceptable and a goal regarding clear communication. But I'm unsure about what else I can work towards during this experience. I'd appreciate any input from OR nurse's (previous, current, etc.) on what skills are used during the average day.
