What we do
The Ethiopian Nursing Association (ENA) advocates for the rights and interests of nurses across Ethiopia, ensuring their voices are heard in policy discussions with governmental bodies, healthcare organizations, and policymakers. Our commitment extends to the continuous professional development of nurses through various training programs, workshops, and conferences, keeping them abreast of the latest advancements in medical science and healthcare practices. By representing our members in key discussions and providing them with essential resources, we aim to shape a supportive and progressive healthcare environment.
To maintain and elevate the quality of nursing care in Ethiopia, ENA runs rigorous accreditation and certification programs, ensuring that nursing education and healthcare facilities meet the highest standards of excellence. We support quality improvement initiatives within healthcare settings, providing resources and guidance to enhance patient care. Additionally, we champion nursing research and innovation by offering grants and disseminating findings through publications and conferences, striving to advance the science of nursing and improve patient outcomes.
ENA also offers a variety of services to our members, including career counseling, networking opportunities, and exclusive resources, fostering a community where nurses can connect and grow professionally. We actively participate in public health initiatives, collaborating with other organizations to conduct health campaigns, provide community education, and deliver essential services to underserved populations. Believing in the power of collaboration, we partner with local and international organizations on joint projects, share best practices, and leverage resources to advance the nursing profession. Our leadership development programs and mentorship opportunities empower nurses to take on influential roles, shaping healthcare policy and practice at all levels.
