Nursing Priorities

AORN has a new affiliation with the American Nurses Association (ANA). It provides AORN members with individual affiliate, non-voting status membership to ANA.

The affiliate membership will allow AORN members to connect with the resources and advocacy activities of ANA and the broader nursing community. The affiliation grants AORN members access to ANA's advocacy resources and creates the opportunity to present a united front for such common-ground issues as patient safety and workplace safety.
