A retrospective analysis of the registered care technologist (RCT) proposal.
This article reviews, in retrospect, the Registered Care Technologist proposal previously advanced by the American Medical Association. It argues that an analysis of this proposal is a useful way of understanding interest group theory. Further, it makes a case for nurses in general and Black nurses in particular to understand this theory from an economic perspective. Finally, it urges all nurses to continue to collectively utilize power.
