My day begins at 5:45 a.m. sharp when I walk from pre-op to PACU to check on everything from medical gases to medications. Here’s the mental checklist I complete during the morning rounds in order to maintain a safe environment for my staff and our patients.
My morning routine takes me around 15 minutes to complete. Afterward, during our department’s morning huddle, I alert the perioperative team of any safety breaches I discovered and discuss ways we’ll manage the issues until they’re fixed. The staff also sees that I walk the talk when it comes to one of my favorite mottos: “You see it, you own it.”
