Position Statements



CENA has developed a number of position statements that define CENA’s position on standards of emergency nursing care and other matters that affect emergency nurses. The Professional Standards Committee is responsible for coordinating the drafting, review and endorsement of CENA Position Statements. This Committee and the Board identify Statements for development, prioritise them and then allocate responsibility for drafting those with highest priority to Branch Committees and other committees and subcommittees. These documents will be added here once they have been completed and endorsed by the Board.

If you are interested in contributing to the development of Position Statements please contact the Chair of the Professional Standards Committee (
professional@cena.org.au) or your Branch Committee of Management.
