Periop Nursing Video Library

Make Your Education Resources Go Further

Videos are an efficient and cost-effective way to not only supplement your Periop 101 curriculum but to educate your entire team.

Support your perioperative team’s professional development with our Periop 101 videos. Incorporate the videos into your in-services or encourage your team to watch them and learn at their own pace.

Who Are the Videos Designed For?

  • Registered nurses currently enrolled in Periop 101
  • New and experience registered nurses transferring to the perioperative suite from other nursing specialties
  • Sterile processing team members
  • Non-RN perioperative team members (e.g., surgical technologists, surgical assistants/aides)
  • Other RNs involved in operative/invasive procedures in non-traditional OR settings (e.g., Endoscopy, OB, Cath Lab, Radiology)
  • Nursing students at schools of nursing
