Critical assessment and rapid response are essentials skills for perioperative staff members, and that goes double for perioperative leadership. Patient-centered leadership is a must. Like the OR, the postanesthesia care unit (PACU, formerly referred to as the “recovery room”) is a critical care area plagued by an influx of new hires with little experience being thrust into a high-acuity environment. In today’s volatile staffing ecosystem, PACU leaders need the right clinical expertise and enough maturity to guide new nurses through decision-making and communication best practices.
