Date:4/25/2012

BRUSSELS, April 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

European OR Nurses Accreditation Council promoting Education as WHO regional healthmap

At their 6th Annual Conference entitled 'Sailing to the Future' (26th-29th April 2012) in Lisbon today, the European Operating Room Nurses Association (EORNA) highlighted the latest progress in the harmonisation of education standards for operating room (OR) nurses in Europe and beyond.

In just three years since first launching, the EORNA Accreditation Council for Education (ACE) has been implemented in the majority of EORNA's 26 European member countries and 27 member associations. EORNA membership extends beyond Europe as it follows the guide of the WHO regional health area map. The Association continues to grow, with Russia having completed their written submission for membership and Malta, Poland and Luxemburg having lodged their expressions of interest to join.

With 60,000 registered nurse members, EORNA has developed a comprehensive path for the education and continuous professional development for OR nurses in Europe through their Core Curriculum Document 2012 (A Perioperative nursing education guide), the EORNA Perioperative Competency framework and the ACE Accreditation system.

The only nursing accreditation system of its kind in Europe, EORNA's ACE system aims to improve and harmonise the quality and standard of perioperative care in all member countries.
Not only will the education framework and accreditation system facilitate the drive for best practice in OR's, but its implementation will ensure greater patient safety from the moment of admission, to leaving the perioperative setting.
