In honour of Emergency Nurses Day, celebrated last week on Wednesday October 8, the Mackay Hospital and Health Service (HHS) paid tribute to the dedicated teams of nurses who form the heart of emergency care across the region.
Known for their calm under pressure and steady hands in moments of crisis, emergency nurses provide skilled, compassionate care to patients and families facing some of life’s most challenging circumstances.
Whether responding to trauma, stabilising severe injuries, or managing life-threatening illnesses, their presence offers both reassurance and expertise when it is needed most.
In appreciation, Mackay HHS acknowledged the vital role these nurses play across their facilities.
“In the fast-paced ED, these nurses expertly assess patients, administer medications, perform vital procedures and ensure every patient receives timely, high-quality care,” a representative said.
“They also offer reassurance, empathy and clear communication to those facing uncertainty, often while juggling multiple emergencies at once.
“Their commitment to caring for people of all ages, at all hours, is the foundation of our ability to respond when it matters most.”
“To every ED nurse across our facilities, thank you for your skill, strength and compassion.
“You are the heart of emergency care and your impact reaches far beyond our hospital walls, touching countless lives and inspiring those who work beside you.”
