WHAT ENA MEANS TO ME:

I would not be the ER nurse I am today without ENA’s education – TNCC and now ENPC are knowledge bases I use whenever I take care of my ER patients. Obtaining my CEN was another milestone, make possible by ENA. The camaraderie of emergency nurses is like family.

Our web site is a valuable source of meeting schedules, TNCC/ENPC/other classes, CEUs , special events, and links to National ENA web site plus email access to state council members and officers.

All Emergency nurses are encouraged to join ENA. Not only is this the best way to network, it give us a collective voice in issues that directly affect us by providing excellent education for emergency nurses with courses like TNCC, ENPC and Injury Prevention Training.
