My name is Fraser MacKinnon RN, ENC(C), CEN, CFRN. I have been an ED nurse for over 20 years, having worked in small rural hospitals to regional trauma centers in three provinces. I have worked as a paramedic and critical care flight nurse and have taught numerous pre-hospital and emergency courses.

I hope this page can serve as one venue to keep current and stay interested in the practice of emergency care. FOAMEd, FOAMems, FOAMcc
