Classes and a day of observation

This week was mostly classes, but I did get to observe circulating (as my primary focus) for a day. Having been in the OR for many years, I knew how hard my circulators worked. It was refreshing to see the PNDS (yep, it's actually a really good book) lay out each activity that nurses do in the OR for their patients. Still working on the assignment I need to turn in Monday, lots of busy work, but also a good review of all the things I will need to incorporate into my daily skills and tasks.
