To protect the privacy of its members, as of April 1, 2001, AORN no longer requires or accepts members' social security numbers for verification of contact hours, registration of education activities (eg, Home Study Programs, independent studies), or ordering of products or services. Instead, a six-digit member identification number used in the AORN database is the official identification number for AORN members. All new and renewal membership cards now contain this new number. If you do not know your six-digit member identification number, call AORN customer service at (800) 755-2676 x 1.

This same six-digit member identification number must be used initially to access the Member Zone areas of AORN Online. Members can choose to change this "web access" number if they wish. As a result, some members ultimately may have two different numbers--a member identification number and a web access number. It is important to remember, however, that only the original six-digit member identification number issued by AORN can be used when calling customer service, ordering AORN products and services, or submitting answer sheets for Home Study Programs. If you have any questions, call AORN customer service.
