Hello and welcome to our unit!
Welcome to our Surgical and Procedural Services! We are a highly specialized environment where teamwork, communication, and patient safety are at the core of everything we do. Our service line includes Same Day Surgery, PACU, Endoscopy, Brachytherapy, Pre-Admission Testing, and the Infusion Center, located at Vanderbilt Wilson County Hospital.
We provide care for patients ages 18 and older who are undergoing outpatient procedures and treatments that allow them to return home the same day. Because our patients have a wide variety of diagnoses and healthcare needs, our team must be adaptable, knowledgeable, and committed to delivering individualized, patient-centered care.
Our unit fosters a friendly, collaborative atmosphere where nurses and interdisciplinary team members work together to ensure a safe, efficient, and positive patient experience. Team members are recognized for their expertise, commitment to excellence, and compassionate approach to caring for patients and their families.
One of the many benefits of working within Surgical and Procedural Services is the opportunity to maintain a healthy work-life balance while engaging in meaningful quality improvement initiatives, professional development activities, and continuing education opportunities.
Successful nurses in our department are compassionate, adaptable, and dedicated to providing exceptional care. New team members receive a comprehensive orientation tailored to their experience level through a structured preceptor program that provides hands-on training, guidance, and support as they transition into their role. Ongoing mentorship, educational resources, and support from our Education Department help build confidence, strengthen clinical skills, and promote professional growth in a supportive learning environment. We are committed to creating a culture where team members feel empowered to learn, grow, and become successful members of our Surgical and Procedural Services team.
We encourage professional growth.
At Vanderbilt Wilson County Hospital, we are committed to helping team members achieve their professional goals. Surgical and Procedural Services offers opportunities to develop specialized skills, participate in quality and safety initiatives, and pursue career advancement in a supportive and collaborative environment.
