AORN’s AAAHC Accreditation Assistant is designed to be used in conjunction with the current AAAHC Accreditation Handbook for your accreditation program (https://store.aaahc.org/handbooks). AORN’s Accreditation Assistant does not list every AAAHC Standard or Element of Compliance, but includes those for which AORN has associated guidelines and resources that may be used to assist in obtaining and maintaining accreditation. AORN’s tools are meant to be used as templates that can be customized for your setting and for the local, state, and federal requirements under which your facility operates.
