Two-phased oncology orientation program. A resource efficient teaching strategy.
Orientation is an important component in assuring the assimilation and adequate performance of new employees. In settings that require the integration of high-level technical skills and critical thinking, employees must learn essential information in a short time. In this article, the authors review the process used in a critical care oncology setting to develop a curriculum for a two-phased orientation program. Implementation and evaluation strategies are presented to assist others in the process of developing orientation programs that achieve desired objectives in a resource-efficient environment.
