Since 1949, AORN has united and empowered surgical nurses, healthcare organizations, and industry to define standardized perioperative practice. As the world's largest perioperative professional association, we are dedicated to solving the challenges that impact surgical teams and patients every day.
With an ever-evolving healthcare environment (medical advancements, facility mergers, workforce demographics), AORN must invest in the future and advance nursing best practices with major initiatives, including delivering robust tools and resources, implementing new technology and content delivery options, and expanding member benefits, services, and programs.
To support AORN's work, plan for continued success, and provide the best member experience, the Board of Directors approved a $10 membership dues increase, effective July 1, 2019 as outlined below.
