title: Setting ambulatory care nursing standards.
abstract: A review of current literature will show that nursing standards of care abound for the hospitalized patient, but that very little has been written in reference to ambulatory care nursing. Author Patricia Miller writes that nurses have an obligation to ensure that nursing care is safe and within accepted levels of quality and thus standards of care have been established within the profession to help meet these expected levels of nursing care.
