OR Manager Announces Exciting Changes for 2025: New Bimonthly Schedule, Expanded Resources, and Innovative Initiatives

Rockville, MD – Tuesday, October 29, 2024 – As the healthcare landscape continues to evolve, OR Manager, the leading resource for perioperative leaders and surgical suite professionals, is proud to announce key strategic changes for 2025. These enhancements reflect OR Manager’s ongoing commitment to providing timely, relevant, and actionable insights that meet the needs of today’s operating room teams, industry vendors, and healthcare leaders.

"OR Manager has thrived for 40 years thanks to the ongoing support of our incredible community," says Tarsilla Moura, Healthcare Group Content Director. "Our mission has always been to equip perioperative leaders with the information they need to run their departments efficiently and safely. These changes will enhance that mission, offering more targeted, actionable content delivered in smarter ways."

Transition to Bimonthly Publication Schedule

Beginning in January 2025, OR Manager will shift from a monthly publication model to a bimonthly schedule. This new approach will allow for deeper, more curated content, delivering high-value, in-depth articles focused on the most pressing issues facing surgical teams and leadership. Our new release cadence will be:

• January/February
• March/April
• May/June
• July/August
• September/October
• November/December

In addition, OR Manager will publish two special “show issues” tied to its flagship events, the OR Business Management Conference in February and the OR Manager Conference in October. These issues will feature exclusive interviews and insights from event speakers, tying conference discussions to practical, actionable solutions for the perioperative community.

Enhanced Digital Offerings for On-Demand Access

With the growing demand for easily accessible, real-time information, OR Manager is expanding its digital presence. In 2025, subscribers can expect a broader range of online content, including new video segments, webinar series, and interactive discussions. These resources will delve into emerging trends, successful strategies, and key topics such as staffing optimization, surgical innovation, sterile processing, anesthesia advancements, labor costs, and health equity.

Flagship Projects and New Initiatives

OR Manager will continue to deliver its core projects, including the highly regarded Salary/Career Survey, while also introducing new initiatives designed to elevate leadership across perioperative teams. Among these is the Periop Leadership and CNO Survey, a first-of-its-kind poll of Chief Nursing Officers across the nation. This survey aims to provide exclusive insights into leadership dynamics, offering valuable data to help perioperative directors advance in their careers and foster stronger team leadership.

Looking Ahead to 2025

As OR Manager embarks on these exciting new initiatives, its commitment to the perioperative community remains unwavering. The brand will continue to be the trusted source for essential insights, helping surgical teams navigate challenges and innovate confidently to improve patient care.
