1 THE CENTRAL LINE Missouri Emergency Nurses Association Spring 2008 Volume 22 Brenda Butler, RN,BSN, CEN Missouri State Council President w Message from Missouri State ENA Council President: Brenda Butler April brings warm weather and with it many challenges for emergency nurses throughout Missouri. Emergency Departments across the state continue to look at ways to be more efficient and improve patient flow. Warm weather adds an increased number of trauma patients to already crowded departments. The increasing number of trauma patients in turn increase patient wait times and length of stay for less critical patients, which puts the ED nurse at the bedside explaining the ever growing wait. We have seen a nation wide trend as the baby boomer generation ages, it becomes more common for the inpatient beds to be full, meaning that emergency department patients who are ready for admission into the hospital must remain in the ED, thus further stressing the Emergency Department. Psychiatric and substance abuse patients are being seen in our emergency departments in growing numbers, further stressing the ED with clinical and placement challenges. Add to these issues a shortage of emergency trained physicians, a shortage of nurses, too many uninsured patients with no where else to go and long waits for doctors appointments that force non-emergency patients to clog the EDs when they are sick. Whatever the challenges that you face as an emergency nurse, I want to invite and encourage you to attend your Local Chapter and State Council meetings. Missouri ENA offers many opportunities for you to share your experience of what has decreased wait times and improved patient flow in your emergency department. Upcoming educational and networking opportunities for emergency nurses; Combined Clinical Conference August 12-15, 2008 at Tan-Tar-A Resort, and Scientific Assembly in Minneapolis, MN. The Missouri State ENA Council will meet May 17, 2008 at 10:30 a.m. at Lake Regional Hospital please feel free to contact me either by phone (573) or butlerbrenda@charter.net.

7 Does This Fit You??? Joan Eberhardt, RN, BSN, MA, CCRN, FAEN Chief Nurse, Missouri-1 DMAT Are you aware there s a terrific opportunity awaiting you as an emergency nurse, trauma nurse or nurse practitioner to become a member of a special Missouri disaster team that responds nationally and sometimes internationally to disasters? The Missouri-1 Disaster Medical Assistance Team (DMAT) is seeking emergency nurses, trauma nurses and nurse practitioners in both the pediatric and adult patient care environments who are interested in actively participating in National, and sometimes International, disaster medical assistance. Missouri-1 DMAT has teams at the federal, as well as the state or corporate level. You can choose to participate at one or both levels, or even decide to commit your time as a dedicated member to the home team during deployment. Becoming a DMAT Team member does require commitment from you......because it means you are truly interested in participating and responding to help others during times of tremendous need. Medical care is provided in areas that have experienced horrible calamities such as tornadoes, hurricanes and floods, as well as other devastating events. In writing this, I realize not everyone is interested in or even cut out to do this sort of venture. But if you are a nurse who is looking for an opportunity to literally give something back this is truly the opportunity that you have been seeking. If you are interested in more information about Missour-1 DMAT, please contact Administrative Officer, Jill Thorp at jill.thorp@hhs.gov. She can tell you more about the Division meetings in St. Louis, Springfield and Kansas City, and make arrangements for you to attend a team meeting as a guest to get a better understanding of the membership and work of the team. I hope you will seriously consider this tremendous opportunity. Being a member of Missouri-1 DMAT is something of which I am intensely proud. As a charter member, I can honestly share that you will be joining a group of dedicated medical team members who are always available and ready to respond to the needs of others at moments notice. 30,000 Educational Opportunities Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Child Abuse, and Elder Abuse...

8 NATIONAL NEWS By Tiffiny Stever Work on the Strategic Plan continues. A three year plan is a much larger task than one can imagine. We did some work while in Hawaii, continue to work on things via and will have another face to face meeting (3-days worth) in July in Chicago. As we move forward we will continue to update members; as the plan is what is going to drive your organization. Leadership in Hawaii was a huge success. Besides being a beautiful place to visit I heard many positive comments from the attendees. The Leader s Conference was well attended and the new format was well received. The sessions were very informative. I was pleased to see the number of members who attended the Candidates Forum. Please take the time to review the candidates information on-line when it becomes available and please vote. This is your organization! SBIRT will be released in April and we are looking for Champions in every state. The TNCC 6 th Revision Update is complete and I know that several states have held the new course. In March I represented the ENA at the Student Nurses Association National Conference. What a wonderful group of students (3500 strong). I believe that I even recruited a few to become ED nurses! Additionally, I was truly rewarded in spending time with them. So for now I m going to close, but again do not hesitate to call or write me with questions or concerns.
