Abstract
Nurses are the frontline healthcare professionals in the emergency units, charged with providing ethical, safe and effective emergency care. They are required to have specific knowledge and skills about emergency care. Emergency nursing is a speciality requiring high acuity as it is complex, acute and sometimes chaotic in nature. It is centred on the level of severity, urgent intervention, prioritization, resuscitative measures and stabilization to prevent, mortality and morbidity.
