Periop 101

What is Periop 101?  

Periop 101 is a program used by educators to train new perioperative nurses. It consists of 25 online learning modules delivered through AORN's e-learning platform. Each learning module includes required reading and suggested videos from AORN's Perioperative Nursing Video Library. Periop 101 is designed as a blended program to be given in conjunction with a clinical preceptorship.

The Periop 101 Demo allows you to preview the course and the learning components included in the course.

Why should I offer Periop 101 to my staff? 

  • Periop 101 is written by expert perioperative nurse-authors, peer-reviewed, and always current with the latest AORN Perioperative Standards and Recommended Practices.  
  • Offering evidence-based education to nurses has been shown to reduce staff turnover by as much as 25% and to improve nurse satisfaction. Outcomes like these will elevate your facility to employer-of-choice.
  • Hospitals nationwide have used our evidence-based education program to recruit, educate, and retain new perioperative nurses since 1999.

     “We utilize Periop 101 to educate our new RNs because formal education is a basic need for OR nurses—if you do not know why you do something, you cannot be a critical thinker. Our RN interns who have gone through the program are now confident and competent RNs fulfilling the OR nurse role. Our staff respect the ease with which those nurses assimilate into the OR environment and their ability to practice safe patient care.”  

    - Marilyn Hunter, RN, PhD, CNOR, Halifax Health, Daytona Beach, FL
