What is the emergency nurses association?

The Emergency Nurses Association (ENA) is a professional organization dedicated to promoting excellence in emergency nursing and advancing the quality of emergency care provided to patients. Founded in 1970, ENA represents over 41,000 emergency nurses nationwide and is the largest specialty nursing organization in the United States.

ENA is committed to providing evidence-based emergency nursing education and resources, fostering continuing education, and supporting research to improve emergency nursing practice. The organization offers a variety of educational programs and resources, including conferences, workshops, and online courses, and publishes the Journal of Emergency Nursing, a peer-reviewed scientific journal.

ENA also advocates for the interests of emergency nurses and promotes patient safety in emergency departments. The organization works with legislators, regulators, and healthcare organizations to ensure that emergency nurses have the resources and support they need to provide quality care to patients.
