About EANN
The European Association of Neuroscience Nurses (EANN) is a professional network committed to advancing the competence, collaboration, and professional development of neuroscience nurses across Europe.
Founded in 1975, EANN promotes the exchange of knowledge, research, and best practice to enhance patient outcomes and uphold high standards of care in neuroscience nursing.
Through congresses, working groups, and an expanding international network, EANN provides a platform for shared learning and professional growth.
Today, the Association brings together more than 2,500 members from 19 European countries, united in strengthening neuroscience nursing across the continent.
Vision
Our vision for the future is that the European Association of Neuroscience Nurses will be easily accessible to every neuroscience nurse in Europe and that knowledgeable, competent and skilled neuroscience nurses will deliver nursing care.
We are striving to attract other EU countries to join us and benefit from networking and sharing of best practice in Neuroscience.
Mission
The mission of the European Association of Neuroscience Nurses (EANN) is to enhance and develop the competence of European neuroscience nurses by improving the exchange of information between nurses across Europe.
In realising the mission of our Association optimal patient outcomes will be promoted leading to improved standards in patient care throughout the European community.
With the launch of the working groups in 2016, the momentum has continued and the aims and objectives of the groups have been cemented by agreeing on a directory of recognised principles and values. These will establish a framework to guide further work streams in the future.
