Ok, Due to a lack of available med-surg and other preceptor spots, I have been assigned the OR. I honestly do not know much about OR nursing and was wondering what are some basic things I should prepare for/study/be aware of for this experience so I dont look like an idiot. Also, I know this is kind of a superficial question, but what kind of salaries are there in OR nursing starting out and with 10-20 yrs. experience. I know these numbers will vary greatly, but Im just looking for a ballpark figure as OR is very new to me.
