Governing Documentation

General Assembly

The ENA General Assembly is the principle body responsible for developing policies and positions and providing direction for matters relating to emergency nursing; communicating member needs to the ENA Board of Directors; providing input to the ENA Board of Directors on issues relating to the practice of emergency nursing; and adopting procedures governing the operation of the General Assembly.

The General Assembly consists of no more than 700 voting delegates, including those from ENA's global delegation. Each state council and global delegation has the right to appoint two voting delegates, one of who shall serve as state captain, as well as one nonvoting alternate delegate. The remaining state and global delegates will be allocated based on the percentage the delegation is to the association's overall membership, determined annually as outlined in procedures.
