ENA President Chris Dellinger

"I'm so honored to have been elected, and I am committed to working with the board to shine a light on the challenges emergency nurses face, such as workplace violence and the mental health crisis," Dellinger said. "Years ago, I heard someone at an ENA conference say that we, as emergency nurses, 'show up, stand up and shine.' It's a phrase that has stuck with me. 'Shine' is the perfect theme for my term.

"I also want to shine a light on our profession, the critical and compassionate work emergency nurses do, as ENA continues to expand its engagement globally through education, advocacy and research," Dellinger said.

Dellinger, who is director of emergency, trauma and ICU services at WVU Medicine Camden Clark Medical Center, has built a more than 30-year career in emergency nursing. She held numerous active roles within ENA's committee structure, was president of the West Virginia State ENA Council for more than a decade and was elected to her first term on the ENA Board of Directors in 2017. Dellinger also served as ENA secretary/treasurer, and in 2022 ENA members chose her as the 2023 president-elect.
