History
This organisation was originally formed as the Australian Confederation of Operating Room Nurses at the first Australasian National Conference for Operating Room Nurses in 1977. In 1978 the inaugural meeting of ACORN was held with each of the six Australian states as member bodies of this national body. In 2000 ACORN became a college and established a Secretariat based in Adelaide. The Australian College of Operating Room Nurses is the peak national perioperative nursing organisation in Australia.
