Accommodations & Travel
OR Manager Conference provides a 2-night hotel stay at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside Hotel. Please make your reservation online using this link: https://book.passkey.com/go/200ac0a2. The deadline to book your room is August 16, 2019. You will need to apply an active credit card to the reservation in order for it to process.

OR Manager Conference Audience
The OR Manager Conference Audience includes perioperative leaders, including OR managers, directors, business managers and others involved in running the surgical suite. Because the PACU Manager Summit is co-located with the OR Manager Conference, attendees of both events will be able to upgrade their registration package to gain access to all sessions. As such, your audience may also include PACU Managers, Charge Nurses (recovery), ASC Administrators, PACU Directors, as well as Nurse Anesthetists.
Hot buttons for attendees include communication, leadership, staffing, patient care, sterile processing, quality improvement, business management, technology, new programs, and ambulatory surgery center-specific topics.
The audience’s main concerns are getting advice and learning take-home tools that they can bring back to their OR to increase performance and success, in addition to hearing about lessons learned from peers and how to incorporate developing techniques with their resources.
