DULLES, Va.--()--Vovici, the leading provider of online survey software and enterprise feedback management (EFM) solutions, today announced that the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA), the preeminent organization representing Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs), is using feedback captured by Vovici to maintain a high level of standards and gain a deeper understanding of its member base.
“Engaging our members is very important to AANA, as it guides how we assign priorities and allocate resources”
Founded in 1931, the AANA represents 42,000 CRNAs and student nurse anesthetists, or more than 90 percent of the nation’s nurse anesthesia professionals. The organization uses Vovici to power its annual member demographic survey and streamline accreditation processes through a more convenient, online user experience.
“Engaging our members is very important to AANA, as it guides how we assign priorities and allocate resources,” explained Rebecca Headrick, AANA training and development specialist. “People all across the organization study the results of our member surveys throughout the year. The Vovici solution allows us to get really creative with how we can analyze the data. With the flexibility of Vovici and a little imagination, I can get any information I need.”
Alongside AANA, the Council on Accreditation of Nurse Anesthesia Educational Programs (COA) uses Vovici to conduct its annual survey of nurse anesthesia programs. “We were in the process of developing an internal solution and ran into some challenges,” noted Liza Curiel, COA Accreditation Operations Specialist. “We turned to Vovici because it was the only solution that proved it could drive both the COA’s survey of programs and the AANA’s membership management efforts.” Using the Vovici solution, the COA team conducts an annual survey of the nation’s 110 accredited nurse anesthetist programs, which graduate over 2,000 new nurse anesthetists every year. “Vovici surveys have been a huge benefit,” says Curiel. “By automating the process, we have reduced the overall workload, and the analysis generated by Vovici enables us to provide a summary of data for the program administrators and the COA.”
“AANA is one of the longest-standing and most respected healthcare professional associations, and we are proud to partner with them,” says Dave Capuano, vice president of marketing for Vovici. “Associations like AANA are turning to Vovici in growing numbers to stay attuned to member demographics, manage certification, and establish priorities that align with the needs of their members.”
