Emergency Care


Nursing Staff

The current Emergency Department opened in June, 1999 and is now the second busiest in the state, with over 86,000 visits annually. The ED includes a 5-bed mental health “pod,” staffed by psychiatric RNs and mental health clinicians. The nurse to patient ratio in the ED is four patients to one nurse.

We are education-oriented, with courses such as TNCC, ENPC, and PALS held on site each year. All RN’s are ACLS certified. Membership dues to the Emergency Nurses Association are fully funded for RN’s who are certified in emergency nursing (CEN). Each year, several staff nurses are given the opportunity to attend the National Emergency Nurses Scientific Symposium. For more information on a nursing career with Baltimore Washington Medical Center, call nurse recruiters Sue Stein at 410-787-4717 or Sue Guzinski at 410-787-4615.

“I have worked in the ER since 1988. I work here because the ED is very organized. I love the people I work with, they are like family. I also like the educational benefits.”
