The ENA Connection is a publication that is shared monthly by the Emergency Nurses Association. This would be an excellent place to share my evidence-based project idea on reducing violence and enhancing safety in healthcare facilities and addressing the issue of bullying within the nursing profession. The publication covers many issues in emergency nursing including, education on grant funding, medical issues, shared governence, quality control, effective management, current trends in nursing, and using evidence-based solutions in our practice.
The Emergency Nurses Association holds conferences both regionally and nationally. I recently attended an ENA regional confernce in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I think that a regional conference would be the perfect place to present my EBP project ideas. As emergency workers, I feel they understand the need for increased security measures in our healthcare facilities, as well as the need to address the issue of lateral violence in the form of burse to nurse bullying. It is truely a problem in our profession that is drastically affecting the ability of healthcare organizations to recruit and most importantly-retain good nurses.
