Basic Perioperative Education
-
The enclosed outline is a baseline starting point or what i refer to as first tier material for teaching basic perioperative nursing. When using this outline keep in mind this is basic and requires more detail as the learners demonstrate understanding of first tier knowledge in a five tier approach to teaching/learning.
Second tier material stems from this basic set.
Third tier should involve more of a hands-on approach.
Fourth tier should support first steps to independence.
Fifth tier should be an evaluation of the independent nurse. This is where self-reflection leads to retained knowledge.
Beginners get confused when complex topics are interspersed with first tier material. For example, when teaching a segment on anesthesia, it is confusing to introduce MH if the learner has not grasped what neuromuscular blocade really means. Depolarizing and nondepolarizing neuromuscular blockers should be explained first. Complications should be taught as second and third tier material. Jumping around topic-wise defeats the assured learning process.
