The perioperative setting is a complex, high-risk working environment. Ensuring adequate staffing with highly competent nurses remains a top priority to sustain safe patient care. However, there are barriers to individual professional advancement in hospitals, including costs and lack of support or time, which can lead to decreased nurse satisfaction. After the mandated cancellation of elective surgery in March 2020 resulting from the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, leaders at a medical center decided to turn this difficult situation into an opportunity to re-engage their perioperative personnel in professional development. More than 70 staff members participated in activities related to certification, continuing education, clinical advancement, and cross-training. Elective surgery has since resumed, and as a result of the pursuit of professional development opportunities, staff member turnover did not increase throughout the transition at the medical center. Interest in professional growth has been reignited and staff members are excited about future development opportunities.
围手术期环境是一个复杂的高风险工作环境。确保配备足够数量且能力出众的护士仍然是维持安全患者护理的首要任务。然而，医院中存在个人职业发展的障碍，包括成本以及缺乏支持或时间，这可能导致护士满意度下降。在2020年3月因2019冠状病毒病大流行而强制取消择期手术后，一家医疗中心的领导决定将这一困境转化为让围手术期人员重新参与职业发展的契机。70多名工作人员参加了与认证、继续教育、临床晋升和交叉培训相关的活动。此后择期手术已恢复，由于追求职业发展机会，在医疗中心的整个过渡期间工作人员流动率并未增加。对职业成长的兴趣被重新点燃，工作人员对未来的发展机会感到兴奋。
