Frequently asked questions
An RN Clinical Coordinator Operating Room collaborates closely with lead anesthesiologists to optimize surgical scheduling, ensuring smooth case transitions and efficient resource allocation. This partnership enhances team communication and reduces delays, directly impacting patient outcomes in busy OR settings like Westminster, CO.
Certifications such as CNOR (Certified Nurse Operating Room) and specialty nursing credentials are highly valued. These credentials demonstrate advanced knowledge in perioperative nursing, often preferred in Colorado healthcare facilities, and can open doors to leadership roles like clinical coordination.
While leadership experience is preferred, many roles, including those at Catholic Health Initiatives, consider candidates with strong clinical expertise and effective communication skills. The focus is on clinical judgment and team support rather than formal managerial duties.
Westminster's healthcare market shows steady demand for operating room nurses due to regional population growth. However, roles with clinical coordination responsibilities tend to attract more experienced candidates, making the competition moderate to high, especially for positions at reputable providers like Catholic Health Initiatives.
Salaries for RN Clinical Coordinators in Westminster typically range from $80,000 to $95,000 annually, reflecting local cost of living and the advanced responsibilities involved. Bonuses and shift differentials may further enhance total compensation, especially in full-time roles.
Catholic Health Initiatives fosters growth through leadership mentoring, educational programs, and a culture valuing clinical excellence. RN Clinical Coordinators receive resources for skill development and are encouraged to engage in cross-departmental collaboration, enhancing both clinical and leadership capabilities.
Beyond direct patient care, this role involves coordinating daily staff assignments, facilitating communication between surgeons and nursing staff, and supporting quality improvement initiatives.

Absolutely. This position blends hands-on nursing with leadership functions like mentoring and scheduling, ideal for nurses looking to expand influence beyond bedside care while maintaining clinical engagement within a supportive team environment.
Many believe coordinators manage staff like supervisors, but the role is more about clinical support and resource coordination. Also, it’s often assumed that coordinators don’t provide direct patient care, whereas they actively take assignments based on unit needs.
Westminster’s accessibility via major highways and public transit generally facilitates manageable commutes. However, variable shift times and on-call duties may require flexible travel arrangements, something to consider when applying for OR nursing coordinator roles.
