University Hospital emergency nurses provide a highly specialized level of care. They are members of the only emergency department in the area that specializes in pediatric emergency care. Our goal is to enable nurses to dedicate their care specifically to the patient population they wish to serve. Working closely with the other team members, our nursing professionals define, promote and provide the highest standards in emergency care. Nursing at University Hospital's Emergency Department means challenge, innovation, reward and satisfaction.

Adapting quickly to the rapid changes in acuity level and influx volume, our nurses pride themselves in their ability to maintain high levels of compassion, perform in-depth assessments and provide education to patients and families. Patient advocacy is a high priority while collaboration between physician and nurse provide the ultimate benefit to the patient during a health care crisis.
