Welcome to the Operating Room Nurses Association of Nova Scotia (ORNANS)

Our objective is to provide educational opportunities for Perioperative Registered Nurses and Associates while providing a forum for discussion of issues regarding nursing practice, standards and competencies.  We strive to promote and facilitate the exchange of ideas and concerns among Perioperative Nurses throughout the province and to promote awareness of the role of the Perioperative Nurse.  [read more about ORNANS]
