Evidence based practice nurses raising the quality of patient care everyday 🩺

👀 We see you, CNORs.

Today we’re celebrating the perioperative nurses who chose to take their knowledge and commitment even further.

Earning your CNOR certification takes dedication and grit. It means long hours of studying, strengthening your expertise, and pushing yourself to grow in your practice.

But the impact goes far beyond the credential. Every day, CNOR-certified nurses bring deeper knowledge, precision, and confidence into the operating room, helping make surgery safer for patients
everywhere.

AORN is proud to represent more than 9,000 CNOR members who continue to raise the standard for perioperative nursing.

If you’re a CNOR, be proud and hold your head high.

Repost this and tell us why you decided to become certified. What motivated you? We want to hear your story.
