Abstract
This project focuses on the need for more qualified emergency department (ED) nurse practitioners (NPs) in central Florida. With only 233 certified emergency nurse practitioners (ENPs) nationwide and the increasingly aging emergency physician workforce, there is an obvious discrepancy between the need and supply of ED providers.
