Overview
Emergency nurses work in an emergency department and encounter a wide variety of patients who often require immediate medical attention. You will need to think critically, quickly and calmly as part of a multidisciplinary team operating in a fast-paced environment.
As an emergency nurse you will assess, prioritise and manage patients across paediatrics, major and minor trauma, mental health, gynaecological, obstetric, oncology and older persons.
