As an operating room nurse, I have functioned as both a Circulator and Scrub nurse. In caring for patients undergoing a surgical procedure, my responsibilities included: anticipating the needs of the surgeon when assisting during a procedure, maintaining the sterile field, ensuring that supplies and instruments used during the procedure are sterile, and that equipment used are clean and functioning correctly. I also functioned as a super user for various systems including PICIS: OR Manager, LaborWorks, and Abacus. In addition, I was a member of The Houston Methodist House-Wide Policy & Procedure Committee, actively participated in inventory management for the ORs, collaborated with surgeons in creating and updating their procedural preference cards, and functioned as a new hire preceptor. I also functioned as an auditor for the hospital's Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) Reports required in state of Texas.
