About EMnurse10

EMnurse10 has 4 years experience and specializes in CPEN.

I have been working as a Registered Nurse for 4.5 years. The first 2 years were in a general ED in Alabama, where also worked as a Charge Nurse for the second year. I have been working as a Pediatric ED nurse for the past 2.5 years, and recently accepted a position as a Charge Nurse. I am also a part of a specialized trauma and critical care education team in my department. I am also currently enrolled in an MSN program with a focus on nursing education. I will graduate in 2018 and look forward to being able to teach.
