The orientation program for OR nurses at Mount Sinai Medical Center has been in place for more than two years. Orientees have given consistently favorable evaluations of the program, and many of them have commented that this was the first real OR orientation that they had received in their careers. Staff acceptance of new employees has improved, and our retention rate of new employees is promising. New nurses who have been through the orientation program now can provide staffing in the OR so that more experienced nurses can participate in the RN first assistant training program that we have introduced. A structured orientation program ensures consistency in the information given to new employees. We continue to revise and improve the program based on changes in the workplace and orientees' evaluations. We believe that the time spent designing our program has paid off well in employee satisfaction and retention--in management terms, the return on investment has been good.
西奈山医疗中心为手术室护士制定的入职培训计划已经实施两年多了。参加培训的人员对该计划一直给予高度评价，他们中的许多人表示，这是他们职业生涯中首次真正接受的手术室入职培训。员工对新员工的接纳度有所提高，我们新员工的留用率也很可观。完成入职培训计划的新护士现在能够在手术室提供人员配备，这样经验更丰富的护士就可以参加我们推出的注册护士第一助手培训计划。结构化的入职培训计划确保了向新员工提供信息的一致性。我们会根据工作场所的变化和参加培训人员的评价，持续修订和完善该计划。我们相信，花在设计我们这个计划上的时间在员工满意度和留用率方面都得到了很好的回报——从管理角度来看，投资回报率很高。
