Abstract:
Since the tragic events of 9/11/01, public health nursing is undergoing rapid change with increased public awareness and a need for programs and protocols addressing issues such as bioterrorism, public safety, and continuing healthcare service in community settings. What is the role of professional nursing in these settings during turbulent times? This column focuses on these issues from the lens of the human becoming school of thought with discussion of the embedded ethical opportunities and challenges that require contemplation.
