Description
As the nation copes with anthrax scares and concerns over future bioterrorist attacks, many nurses and other health care professionals have been forced to quickly learn about treating victims of bioterrorism, as well as to re-think their hospital and community disaster plans. The American Nurses Association wants to ensure that registered nurses (RNs) will be able to respond effectively to these new types of emergencies and is working on several fronts to achieve this goal. This website is geared toward providing RNs with valuable information on how they can better care for their patients, protect themselves, and prepare their hospitals and communities to respond to acts of bioterrorism.
