Abstract

All nurses and midwives need to compile personal professional profiles in order to satisfy the requirements of PREP. Profiles must show the equivalent of five days' study activity every three years. The primary purpose of profiles is to give patients a guarantee that practitioners are up-to-date in their practice. Profiles can be a valuable aid to planning personal and professional development.

The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act: what emergency nurses need to know.

The Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA) is a federal statute that should be recognized and understood by all nurses who work in an emergency department or other settings where patients with potential emergencies may present themselves for care. It is a law that imposes specific legal requirements on hospitals in terms of medical screening, stabilization, and transfer of patients, regardless of whether they are outpatients or inpatients. As agents of the hospital, nurses are responsible for maintaining compliance with EMTALA regulations. This article reviews the components of EMTALA and the ways in which they are applied to clinical nursing practice.
