dc.description.abstractPatients with substance use disorders (SUD) constitute up to 1 in 11 emergency department (ED) visits in North America and this number increasing throughout the COVID-19 pandemic (Morin et al., 2017). The ED presents an excellent opportunity to intervene and improve care for patients with SUDs, however there is currently no required or expected level of competency in managing SUDs for registered nurses (RNs) working in an emergency setting. To inform an educational intervention for improving nursing care for patients with SUDs, this project aimed to leverage nursing leadership opportunities to understand the current competency and confidence amongst ED RNs and identify gaps to be ameliorated through continuing education and policy implementation.en
