Welcome to ORNAA
Welcome!
Hi! My name is Jill Clark, and I am from Red Deer, Alberta. I work at the Red Deer Regional Hospital Centre in the Operating Room. I have been an OR Nurse for 19 years and am truly passionate about Perioperative Nursing and supporting OR Nurses in our profession. I am the current President of CORNA (Central Operating Room Nurses Association) and have been in this role for 9 years. I have been on the ORNAA Board for the last 9 years as well, holding positions of Secretary, President-Elect and President.
Over the past few years, ORNAA has been striving to enhance our organization to better serve its members. Areas of focus include new logos for ORNAA and its 3 Districts, a new mission/vision/value statement, revised Bylaws and the inclusion of LPN-ORTs in our organization. We continue to work on reviewing and enhancing member benefits and incentives, offering quality education opportunities, fundraising, and supportive engagement with our members. ORNAA wants each member to know that we value you and your ongoing commitment and dedication to your profession. We want you to know we are continually revising and improving this organization so that it meets your needs, promotes surgical patient safety, supports Perioperative Nursing, and ensures ORNAA’s sustainability for years to come.
All of the changes and growth withing this organization would not be possible without some very dedicated individuals that sit on the ORNAA Board with me.
I want to introduce you to these hard-working individuals volunteer countless hours and are extremely dedicated to Perioperative Nursing in our Province.
