  • Title: Intravenous nursing code of ethics.
    Journal: J Intraven Nurs; 1991; 14(2):120-1. PubMed ID: 2005507.
    Abstract:
    Preamble: A code of ethics acknowledges the acceptance by a profession of the responsibility and trust that society has conferred, and it recognizes the obligations inherent in that trust. The specialty practice of intravenous nursing involves ethical decision making. The Intravenous Nursing Code of Ethics is based on the premise that intravenous nurses, both individually and collectively, must be aware of ethical issues, and pursue the highest possible ethical standards. The principles in this Code of Ethics define the nursing profession's expectations and responsibilities for each member of the Intravenous Nurses Society. This code is a guide to ethical decision making to which all intravenous nurses should adhere.
