A nurse at Geary Community Hospital recently passed the certification examination known as CNOR. As the only accredited credentialing program for perioperative registered nurses, CNOR certification is the gold standard.

Jody Hittle, RN, of Milford, passed the exam which is a 200 multiple-choice exam that must be completed in 3 hours and 45 minutes.

“I am very proud of her accomplishments,” said Dawn Engel, RN, interim chief nursing officer. “Jody demonstrates her dedication to quality and excellence in the surgery department. Obtaining her certification confirms her competence and capabilities.”

Hittle is the nurse manager of the Geary Community Hospital Surgery Center.
