Environmental Health / RN No Harm
The primary dictum for registered nurses, as healthcare professionals, is First, do no harm. In the increasingly complex environment in which health care is delivered today, registered nurses are the premier advocates for:
- The safety and quality of patient care
- The health and safety of registered nurses and other healthcare professionals and healthcare workers
- Healthcare practices which do no harm to the public health environment outside the settings in which healthcare is delivered.
