The Perioperative Operating Room Nurse Fellowship is designed specifically for experienced RNs who have not yet worked in an operating room setting. Please see program requirements below.

The Perioperative Operating Room Nurse Fellowship was built upon an educational course designed by the Association of Perioperative Registered Nurses (AORN).

At the end of the six-month experience, Fellows who successfully complete the program are offered positions in the Main operating room. The program includes a mix of classroom, lab and clinical experiences, working side by side with preceptors who are experts in the operating room nursing practice. The HSS Professional Development Center features a mock OR and simulated patient care setting, including "Sim Man," to help assist new graduate nurses in their transition to the world of "real time" nursing.
