The nurse and industrial hygiene.

In summary, the occupational health nurse and the industrial hygienist have much in common. Each must recognize the value of the other and work together for the good of the employee. Occupational health nursing is frequently what the nurse makes it. Her competency, interest, and motivation, and the demands of the job determine her role. To function effectively, every occupational health nurse should have a thorough working knowledge of the fundamentals of industrial hygiene. This knowledge can be acquired in several ways: through practical experience, by attendance at professional meetings and short courses, by participation in academic training, and through personal research.
