t some point in their lives, most people will undergo surgery or will have a loved one who undergoes surgery. Many of these patients and their family members will be unfamiliar with the perioperative environment and fearful about the surgical experience. It is important, therefore, to educate the public about the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases of surgery and to introduce them to the roles of the nurses who care for surgical patients during each of these phases. Each November, in celebration of Perioperative Nurse Week, nurses at Providence St Vincent Hospital, Portland, Oregon, host a tour of the preoperative unit, several ORs with mock surgical setups, and a mock postanesthesia care unit (PACU). In addition to educating the public about the surgical experience and helping to alleviate fears about surgery, the event can attract students not only to the nursing field, but also to the perioperative nursing specialty. This article provides guidelines for setting up an OR tour.
