Putting prevention into clinical practice: a program for occupational health nurses

1. Preventive services are delivered much less frequently than recommended by primary care providers. Many barriers exist. 2. Occupational health nurses can access the valuable, inexpensive resource--"Put Prevention Into Practice" program--to incorporate prevention into illness care, screening, and other visits to their worksite clinics. 3. Use of the "Guide to Clinical Preventive Services," the tools in a kit of materials, and the passport size, client held minirecords can improve the delivery of clinical preventive services.
