Honoring Emergency Nurses Week

It’s that time of year again, Emergency Nurses Week! This week is sponsored by the Emergency Nurses Association (ENA). From October 6th through October 12th, this week is observed to recognize emergency nurses for their hard work, commitment and service in hospitals and healthcare facilities everywhere.

Emergency nurses are often considered to be the center of the emergency department. They are trained to handle emergency or critical situations when it comes to a patient’s illnesses or injuries. The Emergency Nurses Association states on their website, “This year’s theme, Everyday Extraordinary, is a call to acknowledge the daily bravery, devotion and dedication provided by nurses who save lives and care for the critically ill, mentally ill, traumatized and marginalized patients who enter their doors 24/7.”

We’re excited to celebrate all ER nurses out there and would like to thank you for your hard work and dedication all year long!
