What is the difference between trauma nursing and ER nursing?
Trauma nurses and ER nurses essentially do the same thing -- which is to provide trauma care to patients in an emergency room setting. The main difference is that ER nurses are specialized to the emergency room, while trauma nurses are specialized to trauma. Even though the two areas mostly overlap, there are still trauma nurses who work outside of the emergency room, and ER nurses who do things besides handle trauma. It also gets confusing because ER nurses can work outside of the ER, too. But that is the main difference. Any additional detail about this is of course welcomed... I agree that in essence the two are very similar. To expand on the topic: like stated above "ER nurses do things besides handle trauma", ER nurses deal with every type of person that comes into the ER, whether it be a headache, Stubbed toe, or heart attack. The Trauma nurse is , usually, caring for only trauma patients. The trauma unit can be looked at almost like a specialty within ER, like the CCU can be divided into surgical ICU or Cardiac ICU.
