What does an event nurse do?
You’re probably wondering what an event nurse does and how they’d benefit your event. Nurses provide essential medical expertise and support across a variety of event types. The primary role involves assessing attendees health needs, administering medical treatments, and managing on-site medical emergencies. They’re fast at adapting and addressing a diverse range of health issues including injuries, illnesses and medical conditions. For example, at a sports event, they’ll offer immediate care for sports-related injuries such as sprains, strains, and concussions. As a whole, event nurses play such an important and supportive role, enhancing the safety at all event types and offering peace of mind to organisers and attendees.
