We are pleased to share that our qualified perioperative registered nurses have earned LRH the Certified Nurse Operating Room (CNOR) Strong designation for 2023.
The CNOR Strong designation demonstrates our continued dedication to perioperative excellence, through the achievement of a high percentage of certified perioperative nurses.
In order to receive CNOR Strong designation, at least 50% of eligible perioperative nursing staff must be CNOR-certified and the facility must consistently recognize and reward nurses who become CNOR-certified or complete recertification.
Research shows that nurses who earn the CNOR credential, a national certification for registered nurses in the operating room, have greater confidence in their clinical practice having validated their specialized knowledge in perioperative nursing. A team of CNOR-certified nurses who have mastered the standards of perioperative practice furthers a culture of professionalism, resulting in improved outcomes for surgical patients.
Koren Superchi, RN, MSN, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Nursing Officer at LRH states, “We are grateful for the dedicated surgical services team at LRH and commend our dedicated team of nurses and surgical professionals for their continued commitment to excellence in patient care.”
