The Only International Organization that Spans the Continuum of Trauma Care

The Society of Trauma Nurses is a membership-based, non-profit organization whose members represent trauma nurses from around the world. Members are nurses involved in trauma care in clinical, administrative, research and educational roles.

The mission of the Society of Trauma Nurses is to assist nations, states and local health authorities with the development and maintenance of trauma systems and trauma centers; to work within the trauma system to ensure all people have access to and receive the highest quality of trauma care. This is accomplished across the trauma continuum of care within an environment that fosters visionary care and interdisciplinary collaboration.

The Society of Trauma Nurses provides educational programs, mentoring, interest groups, outreach and services to its membership to assist trauma nurses in professional development.
