Abstract
Nearly 20% of the nursing workforce practice in rural settings. The literature suggest rural nursing staff do not have the same opportunities for continuing education or the implementation of research in their practice as do nursing staff of larger urban hospitals. Rural nursing staff face unique barriers in obtaining the needed continuing education and research. Identifying and accommodating these barriers is needed. The purpose of this study was to identify by survey, what education and research barriers exist for operating room and post anesthesia care nursing staff in the rural hospitals of the Mississippi River Delta.
