Which organization supports the practice and education of perioperative nursing?

APRN Association
AORN (Association of perioperative registered nurses)
ANA (American Nurses Association)
ACNM (American College of Nurse Midwives)

The correct answer is: AORN (Association of perioperative registered nurses)

The Association of Perioperative Registered Nurses (AORN) is dedicated specifically to supporting the practice and education of perioperative nursing. It provides a wide range of resources, including guidelines, education programs, and networking opportunities tailored to the challenges and needs of nurses in the perioperative setting. AORN focuses on improving patient safety and outcomes in surgical settings, promoting best practices in perioperative care, and offering continuing education to ensure nurses remain proficient in their skills. The organization's mission is directly aligned with enhancing the knowledge and competencies of perioperative nurses, making it the primary professional association for this specialized field in nursing. While other organizations listed, like the American Nurses Association (ANA), do advocate for nursing as a whole, they do not focus specifically on the perioperative arena. Similarly, the APRN Association and the American College of Nurse Midwives (ACNM) have distinct areas of focus that do not center on perioperative nursing.
