The Beginning - Nursing in the Neuro OR

A commitment to neurosurgery excellence, with nursing OR units at Barnes-Jewish Hospital devoted solely to the care of neuro patients. That's what this blog site is all about.

The neurosurgery suite at Barnes-Jewish Hospital employs nurses that are specially trained to care for neurological patients. Along with professional excellence, this team functions with one goal in mind -- exceptional surgical care for their patients.

What we would like to do through this blog is to shed more light on this highly skilled team and their work to advance the practice of neurosurgery.

Nurses are a little difficult to find in our country these days. Good nurses are even harder to find. And EXCEPTIONAL nurses are the most difficult to find. Our goal is to catch the attention of all of you nurses out there who specialize in neuro OR care ... to find the most talented, compassionate, caring people that live to help people.

Wouldn't you like to be a member of one of the country's best nursing teams, carrying responsibility for the delivery of the highest quality, personalized patient care? Your specialized skills in the neuro OR will be one of the most important steps in ensuring that the individual surgical needs of each patient are met.

It's all about advancing the diagnosis and treatment of complex conditions of the brain and nervous system. Barnes-Jewish Hospital is backed by one of the premier medical teaching colleges in the United States (Washington University School of Medicine, ranked #2 medical school in the US).

Let us know what you think. We would be interested in your personal experiences as a neuro OR nurse. Success stories. Lessons learned stories. Or just to talk about nursing opportunities. We want to hear from you!
