title: The nursing process and program planning.
abstract: Occupational health nurses implement programs to promote health and prevent injury and disease. The nursing process that is commonly used for individual clients is appropriate and useful when the client is a population of workers. This article provides rationale for using the nursing process for aggregates in occupational settings and provides examples of its use in health promotion programs.
