  • Title: Nurse managed occupational health services without on-site clinical care delivery: a case example.
    Author: Price M, Duplessie K, Powers B.
    Journal: AAOHN J; 1997 Oct; 45(10):496-9. PubMed ID: 9384004.
    Abstract:
    1. In this program management/community network model of occupational health services, the occupational health nurse is responsible for managing program development and implementation, with vendors providing the clinical services. 2. Occupational health nurses' primary areas of responsibility are occupational health, disability case management, ergonomics, and health promotion. 3. Successful management of program outcomes requires the occupational health nurse to continually assess employee/business needs, maintain communication with employees and management, and partner with the environmental, health, and safety team, other functional work groups, and vendors. 4. Effective management of contracts becomes critical to the process beginning with clear service requirements through the delivery of quality services.
