title: In search of therapeutic nursing: maxi-nurses.
abstract: The third article in this series examines two nurse-led units where access to the service is controlled by nurses. However, in many ways they could not be more different. The special care unit in the USA provides rehabilitative care for patients discharged from intensive care, while the nursing centre in Canada offers a drop-in service offering advice to local people.
