_Association partners with two companies to teach Trauma Nursing Core Course _

SCHAUMBURG, Ill., Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Emergency Nurses Association 
has established two new education partners to expand opportunities for nurses in
Australia to advance their training in providing care to trauma patients.

Advanced Life Support Training and Coast Resuscitation Group have added ENA’s Trauma
Nursing Core Course to their education offerings for nurses, paramedics and other
health care providers.

"TNCC provides nurses and paramedics with a structured, systematic approach to trauma
assessment and management that translates directly into improved patient outcomes,"
said Steven Baldwin, Coast Resuscitation Group director and cofounder. "Including
this course was a natural extension of our existing Advanced Life Support."

Coast Resuscitation Group was founded by two registered nurses with experience in
critical care, trauma, pediatrics, maternity and clinical education to offer Advanced
Life Support training in the Gold Coast and Northern New South Wales.

ALST owner Patrick Morton said TNCC meets a demand for nurse-specific trauma education
and complements the advanced life support and resuscitation courses ALST already
provides in Australia.

"As an emergency nurse, I know that there is really limited access to formal, recognized
trauma education, especially education which is designed and structured for nurses,"
Morton said. "TNCC provides a practical, hands-on and patient-centered approach,
focusing on the fundamentals of nursing assessment, relevant pathophysiology, prioritization
and nursing interventions to build confidence in caring for trauma patients." ALST,
based in Canberra, provides education throughout Australia.

TNCC, currently in its ninth edition, was launched in 1986, to help nurses build
their confidence and competence in providing trauma patient care through evidence-
based, standardized education. More than 70,000 nurses have successfully completed
the course over the past four decades, thanks to several translations and verified
instructors who deliver the courses in the U.S. and abroad.

"When ENA developed TNCC, it created a gold-standard for preparing emergency department
nurses to care for trauma patients," said ENA President Dustin Bass, DNP, MHA, RN,
CEN, NEA-BC. "Working with qualified education partners like ALST and Coast Resuscitation
Group means it will reach even more nurses who want to advance their clinical and
critical-thinking expertise to deliver better care."

Both ALST and Coast Resuscitation Group will be representing ENA and sharing information
about TNCC at the Australia and New Zealand Trauma Society’s Trauma Conference in
Sydney Oct. 16-17.
