Developing protocols: a guide for RN-directed student health services.
Nurses directing small college health services without an on-campus physician are faced with many legal issues that are not present when a physician is directing the health service. To establish legally sound parameters for client care in an independent nursing environment, the nurse-director may develop or procure a set of annually reviewed protocols based on mutual agreement between the nurse-director and the medical director. The author offers suggestions on how to establish and maintain such a system.
