In an effort to make the operating room schedule run more efficiently, Perioperative Services has added a position to streamline operating room (OR) efficiency. Joyce Enochs has accepted the position and will work on surgery schedules for operating rooms in both the Clinical Care Center (CCC) and the Main OR in West Tower.
Enochs will use her seven years of OR experience to ensure the surgery schedule is accurately posted, appropriately scheduled and effectively communicated. Division schedulers or surgeons should contact her to schedule difficult surgeries, or if they experience issues in scheduling a surgery. Enochs can be reached at Ext. 4-5701 or 3-0739.
“The goal is to have every surgical procedure performed in the right place, at the right time and with the right staff,” said Janet Winebar, director of Perioperative Services. “By ensuring this, we will create a patient-friendly efficient operating room.”
