  • Title: Radiology nursing: a new dimension.
    Author: Watkins GG, Schick A.
    Journal: Radiol Manage; 1982 Mar; 4(2):6-8. PubMed ID: 10254990.
    Abstract:
    Radiology departments all over the country are inundated with new technology being introduced into the radiographic market. This more complex environment has created a new role in many radiology departments. The position of radiology patient advocate is somewhat new, but growing in potential for maintaining the quality of patient care being delivered. The nurse in radiology can assist in humanizing the patient's experience. The nurse can also act as a liaison with other professional departments. Finally, the nurse can assist in maintaining and improving the quality of care provided in a radiology department. The department of radiology now, more than ever, needs to consider complementing their staff with a nurse.
