A comprehensive overview of occupational and environmental health
nursing, this book is AAOHN's statement of the scope of practice
for this nursing specialty. It represents the latest body of
knowledge significant to this field. Written in an outline format,
it can be used as a textbook for an occupational and environmental
health nursing course, as a clinical reference in a variety of
occupational settings, and as a certification review tool. This new
edition is based on recent revisions to the AAOHN's Code of Ethics
and Standards of Practice. Written by experts in the field of
occupational health nursing. Consistent outline format allows ease
of access to information. Addresses the foundational sciences of
occupational health: epidemiology, toxicology, industrial hygiene,
ergonomics, and injury prevention to provide a comprehensive basis
of knowledge. Incorporates trends in the legal, ethical, economic,
political, and business climates as they relate to occupational and
environmental health and safety, staying current with all areas
that affect the occupational health nurse's roles and
responsibilities. New chapter on disaster planning and management
addresses responsibilities of occupational health nurses in hazard
situations in both the workplace and in the larger community. The
latest government initiatives and guidelines are covered, such as
OSHA's Strategic Management Plan to reduce workplace fatalities,
injuries, and illnesses, plus other new workplace-related
government programs and legislation. Revised competencies of
practice, with performance criteria, present the current practice
expectations at each level of practice. Revised Code of Ethics is a
guide for nurses to maintain and pursue professionally recognized
ethical behavior in providing occupational and environmental health
services. Revised Standards of Practice define the practice of this
specialty and provide a framework for evaluation. Expanded content
in the environmental, research, and health promotion chapters
highlights the latest information in these areas.
