Hello,
I'm in the process of writing a resume and I'd like to include my current ER's rating. Let me clarify... several of our docs and my nursing manager state that our ER is 3nd busiest in the state. I'd like to place this on a resume; however, I have no way to back this up. Really, I'm just going by hearsay. I've tried Google but no luck. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure it's necessary information on a resume but if you desire to put in on there, why don't you include it in a bullet point for that employment entry? Something along the lines of...
"Assessed, planned and implemented nursing care to patients in the emergency department at a facility with the third-largest volume in the state of ANYSTATE...blah...blah...blah"
You get the idea.

Agree with above........or "Assessed, planned and implemented nursing care to patients in the emergency department at a facility with an annual volume of xx,xxx"
Is your ED a desigated trauama center, chest pain center, stroke center of excellence, or anything else like that? Those could be items to include..
"Assessed, planned and implemented nursing care to patients in an emergency department with an annual volume of xx,xxx; facility designations include Level III Trauma, Chest Pain Cyle II, and JCAHO Stroke Center of Excellence"
