Perioperative Services Educator
CHI/St. Luke's The Woodlands
My name is Donna Hameier, BSN, CNOR. I graduated from North Harris Community College with my Associate Degree in Nursing. I continued my education and acquired my bachelor degree in nursing at the Chamberlain School of Nursing. My nursing experience is primarily within perioperative services. As a new graduate nurse working in the OR I developed skills as both a scrub nurse and circulating nurse. I quickly advanced to become a member of the cardiovascular team. As a nurse for over 17 years I have continued my career path to include roles as service line coordinator, OR charge nurse for a level II trauma facility, clinical coordinator and currently the Perioperative Services Educator for three facilities which includes surgical services, endoscopy, sterile processing department and peri-anesthesia units. In 2020 I received the AORN Clinical Nurse Educator Specialty Spotlight Recognition.
