Some of the roles of the circulating nurse include, but are not limited to: - Patient Safety - every patient deserves a trained, skilled, and knowledgeable RN. The RN will interview, transfer, position, and prep the patient according to surgical needs.
- Clinical judgment- observation, knowledge, and assessment skills along with the ability to foresee needs are essential to the success of the operation.
- Communication skills - communicates well with the surgeon, anesthetist, scrub tech, and any other parties involved in the surgical process to make sure the room is prepared for the patient.
- Graduate of an accredited school of nursing.
- Current Utah RN Licensure, or ability to obtain within 6 months of hire.
