RN (CIRCULATOR OR PERIOPERATIVE)

The goal of perioperative nursing practice is to assist patients to achieve a level of wellness equal to or improved from the preoperative level, and to support the patients' family members and significant others during the perioperative period. AORN is committed to the provision of safe perioperative nursing care by ensuring that every patient undergoing an operative or other invasive procedure is cared for by a minimum of one registered nurse (RN) in the circulating role for the duration of each procedure.
