Competency-based education. Its implementation in the OR.
Because the amount of time that an educator can spend educating staff is slowly being taken away in the name of cost containment, the time that is left is valuable. For many educators, this may be only a few minutes a day or week. Making the most effective use of that time is essential. Devising programs that meet the need-to-know rather than nice-to-know learning needs of staff members contributes to staff competency and thereby to quality patient care, and does so in a cost-effective manner.
