As a New York State designated Stroke Center
and Level 2 Area Trauma Center, Huntington Hospital
offers its Emergency Department nursing staff
a diverse and challenging experience in acute
care. The Emergency Department nurse serves all
patients’ needs through primary nursing
care and rotates through all clinical areas within
the department including triage, trauma, psychiatry,
pediatrics, gynecology and acute medicine.
The Emergency Department offers the registered
nurse the opportunity to make independent decisions
and be part of a dynamic team that treats a wide
variety of patients and conditions. Emergency
Department nurses are highly motivated and work
collaboratively with physicians. Continuing
education is provided for nurses to become certified
in Advanced Cardiac Life Support, Pediatric Advanced
Life Support, Trauma Nursing, and for the development
and maintenance of advanced assessment skills.
