AORN Community
The Community section offers online resources to assist nurse professionals and associate members in networking and information-sharing. Whether you're a student looking for a perioperative experience, or an experienced nurse looking for networking opportunities, AORN Communities provide a valuable connection to your profession and your peers.
In the Community section you will find detailed information about local networking opportunities through AORN chapters and state councils along with information of interest to you in your perioperative specialty such as pediatrics or cardiothoracic through AORN's 23 Specialty Assemblies.
If you're interested in participating on the national level, you will find descriptions of all AORN National Committees along with information about AORN's Award and Recognition Program.
Because nothing can surpass the value of personal interaction with your peers, AORN also facilitates a mentor match program to encourage colleagues to support each other in their professional growth. Several online discussion groups enable networking at your fingertips any time of the day or night.
