Building the Workforce:

A Collaborative Perioperative Academic Practice Model
Published:January 14, 2023DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mnl.2022.12.015
      The Center for Professional Development at the Rutgers University School of Nursing developed an academic partnership model for perioperative nursing, providing collaborative academic and experiential training for registered rurses new to perioperative practice. Experienced nurses are enrolled in a 10-week immersion program focused on perioperative education and training. The multi-faceted approach promotes the development of clinical skills and interdisciplinary teamwork required for a successful transition into the surgical environment. Learning outcomes focus on high-quality and patient-centered care as a cost-effective approach to training. The model’s standardized approach promotes recruitment and retention, enhances collaborative partnerships, and can potentially reduce organizational costs.
