SCHAUMBURG, Ill., June 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In addition to celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, the Journal of Emergency Nursing reached another significant milestone with its induction into the Nursing Journal Hall of Fame by the International Academy of Nursing Editors.
Since 1975, JEN has served as ENA's peer-reviewed journal with an emphasis on original research and updates from the emergency nursing specialty that cover practice and professional issues. INANE selected the Journal for its 50 years of continuous publication and sustained contributions to nursing knowledge.
