Job Description
Operating Room RN Circulator

Job Description

The Operating Room RN Circulator provides professional nursing care to patients undergoing surgical procedures. As the patient's advocate in the operating room, the Circulator manages the overall nursing care in the OR, ensures a safe and sterile environment, coordinates the surgical team, and maintains accountability for supplies, equipment, and documentation. This role requires versatility, strong clinical judgment, and the ability to work effectively in a hospital environment with limited resources and frequent on-call demands.

Responsibilities

• Patient Advocacy & Safety: Verify patient identity, surgical site, consent, and history. Perform preoperative assessments, participate in time-out procedures, and advocate for the anesthetized patient throughout the perioperative phase.
• Operating Room Management: Prepare the OR suite with necessary equipment, supplies, and instruments prior to procedures. Anticipate and respond to the needs of the surgical team. Monitor and maintain aseptic/sterile technique and report any breaks in technique.
• Intraoperative Care: Manage non-sterile aspects of the procedure, including opening sterile supplies, handling specimens, documenting intraoperative events, and coordinating with anesthesia, surgeons, and scrub personnel. Account for all sponges, sharps, and instruments (surgical counts).
• Patient Monitoring: Continuously assess patient status, vital signs, and physiological responses. Collaborate with anesthesia providers to ensure patient stability. Provide comfort measures and maintain a safe physical environment.
• Documentation: Accurately document nursing care, medications, implants, supplies, and patient responses in the electronic health record per hospital policy and regulatory standards.
• Supply & Equipment Management: Maintain inventory of supplies, ensure functionality of equipment, and participate in cost-effective resource utilization.
• Postoperative Transition: Assist with patient transfer to PACU or other units, provide hand-off report, and ensure continuity of care.
• Emergency Response: Respond promptly to emergencies, including trauma activations, code situations, or complications. Participate in on-call rotation for after-hours surgical emergencies.
• Quality & Compliance: Adhere to AORN standards, infection control policies, and regulatory requirements. Participate in performance improvement, safety initiatives, and staff education.
• Team Collaboration: Work closely with a small, multidisciplinary team in a resource-limited setting. Demonstrate flexibility to assist in other perioperative areas as needed.

Required Experience / Certifications / Licensure

• Education: Graduate of an accredited Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) program (BSN preferred).
• Licensure: Current, unrestricted Registered Nurse (RN) license. Compact nursing license accepted.
• Certifications: Basic Life Support (BLS) certification required. Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) required or to be obtained within 6 months. Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) preferred.
• Experience: Minimum 1-2 years of Operating Room experience as a Circulator preferred. Experience in a Critical Access Hospital or small facility is a plus. General surgery, orthopedics, OB/GYN, endoscopy, and minor trauma experience preferred.
• Skills: Strong knowledge of surgical procedures, aseptic technique, and perioperative nursing standards. Excellent communication, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
