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.
