President's Message

Happy Perioperative Nurses Week
We, the Manitoba Operating Room Nurses Association (MORNA) Executive salute our Manitoba Perioperative Nurses!!!!
We take this week, November 7-13, 2021 to celebrate each and every perioperative nurse in all of our OR theatres across our province. The theme this week is “Adapting and evolving in a changing world- Perioperative Nursing through a Pandemic”. There is no doubt that each and everyone of you have evolved and grown in your practice and knowledge over the past 19 months. From Concordia OR to Brandon Regional Health Center OR, from Boundary Trails OR to Thompson OR, and every OR in between, we thank you!!! We appreciate the outstanding perioperative care you have given to our surgical patients, even during one of the most challenging times our healthcare system has faced.
You stand beside and care for patients at one of the most vulnerable times in their healthcare journey. We see you aligning your clinical practice with the ORNAC standards and perioperative best practice guidelines to give patients the best chance at positive outcomes. Your advocacy, leadership, professionalism, and resilience is celebrated not only this week, but every day that you show up, care to do your best, and give your all to your patients and healthcare teams. Be proud!!!!
Sincerely,
MORNA Executive 2021-2022
