ENA Launches First Triage Verification for Emergency Nurses
Emergency Nursing Triage Education Program boosts nurses' confidence in triage decisions SCHAUMBURG, Ill., June 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — When lives are on the line, every triage decision in an emergency department matters. Studies show that accurate triage rates are alarmingly low, averaging 59 percent, which is an urgent issue impacting patient care. That gap in education and consistency can mean the difference between timely care and delayed outcomes. To help bridge that gap, ENA launched the Emergency Nursing Triage Education Program. ENTEP, the first and only triage verification program offers standardized education and evaluation process for ED nurses to be verified in triage. 'ENTEP is a truly comprehensive course for nurses who want to bolster their triage education,' said ENA President Ryan Oglesby, PhD, MHA, RN, CEN, CFRN, NEA-BC. 'Some of our pilot participants have said the class made triage feel effortless, they were more confident in identifying triage level and were able to hone their critical thinking skills around special populations such as geriatric, pediatric and pregnant patients.' ENTEP covers a variety of topics, chosen through research and based on five domains. The topics include triage concepts and clinical judgement, focused assessment and questioning for common ED presentations, special populations and considerations, supporting acuity with documentation, communication, triage scenarios, self-care and ESI. Upon completion of the one-and-a-half-day program, along with pre-course work and passing a written exam, participants will be eligible for 22 CE hours and a four-year verification.
